The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

ingredients
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
4 pork blade steaks, 1/2-inch thick
1 cup chunky salsa (mild, medium, or hot, your choice)
1/3 cup water
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
directions
Heat the oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. The pan should be large enough for the pork steaks to fit in a single layer. Add the pork steaks and brown on both sides.
Combine the salsa, water, and cumin until well mixed. Evenly pour the salsa mixture over the pork steaks in the pan. Cover the pan and let simmer for 10-12 minutes or until pork is cooked through.
Sprinkle the pork with the cilantro before serving.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

Very simple recipe! I used boneless pork chops instead of pork blade steaks.

Perfectly tender pork and a zesty sauce. Incredibly easy and perfect for a quick dinner. You could do this with any cut of pork chop.
