Alsatian Casserole (caraway, pepper, onions, clove)

[lubby]

Here is another recipe from my mom:

6 slices of bacon
4 loin pork chop 1 " thick
4 large potatoes pared and thinly sliced
2 medium onions thinly sliced
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 tsp caraway seeds
3/4 cup dry white wine (not cooking wine!)
2 cloves garlic crushed
1 Tbsp chopped fresh parsely

Fry 2 slices of bacon in a large skillet until crispy. Crumble and reserve. Trim the fat from the chops. Brown chops in bacon drippings. Arrange 1/2 the potatoes in a layer in a deep baking dish or oven proof dutch oven. Top with onions. Sprinkle 1/2 tsp salt and pepper. place chops over onions, overlapping to form a single layer. Add remaining potatoes, onion salt and pepper. Crush caraway seeds. Add to dish with wine and garlic. Place remaining bacon on top. Cover with foil if using a baking dish or if using a dutch oven cover with foil and then lid on top. roast on 300 degrees for 2 1/2 hours. Disgard bacon, sprinkle with parsley and crumbled bacon. IMO I would take that bacon and cook until crisp, why disgard it? Well that's what the recipe says and I think it's a waste.
