Ingredients

12	pork chops from the loin (or leg)
100 ml	red wine
100 ml	water
50 ml	light soy sauce
—	grill spices to taste (cumin, black pepper, marjoram, oregano, hot red pepper)
20-30 ml	olive oil (or vegetable oil)

6-7 heads	garlic

Lightly pound the pork chops. Cut garlic cloves into pieces and insert 3-4 of them into the edge of the meat.
Season the meat with salt and the remaining spices, place it in a bowl and pour over the red wine. Cover the bowl with foil and leave it in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours.
Then arrange the chops in a baking tray, pour over the wine from the marinade, the soy sauce and the olive oil together with a little water. Press the remaining garlic heads and distribute evenly over the pork chops. Season again with a little salt and spices, cover with foil and leave for an hour in the refrigerator.
Bake the meat for the first half hour at maximum heat, then for about an hour and a bit at 150 degrees.
When you remove the foil the meat should be lightly browned. If not, leave it uncovered to finish baking.
