Glaze
3 generous tablespoons tamarind paste
2 tablespoons ground aleppo pepper (or other sweet dried chile like ancho)
6 garlic cloves
2 teaspoons asian fish sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons dry white wine
3 tablespoons water (or more)
Chops
4 thin-cut pork chops
extra virgin olive oil

1
If you are grilling, prepare the grill.
2
In a food processor, puree the glaze ingredients. Thin the resulting paste with water as needed to get the consistency of thick masple syrup. Set the glaze aside.
3
Grill the chops over a medium fire until nicely browned, or film a large saute pan with olive oil and sear the chops over medium-high heat for 3 to 5 minutes.
4
In the last few minutes of cooking, baste the chops with the glaze, turning them once to coat both sides. You want it to bubble and caramelize. Serve the chops with the extra glaze alongside.
