- 2 Pork Loin Steaks 20mm-¾" Thick (150g each)
- 250 ml Milk 1 Cup
- 2-3 tablespoon Flour
- 1 Egg
- 100 g Dried Coarse Breadcrumbs 1 Cup
- ½ teaspoon Coarse Sea Salt
- 1 Pinch White Pepper
- Fat for frying the pork I use lard
Instructions
- Remove most of the fat and any rind from the top edge of the pork steaks, then bash them out to a thickness of around 5mm (¼").
- Place the pork in a bowl, pour over the milk and allow the pork to marinate for as long as you can (up to 24 hours, minimum of 2).
- Heat the fat for frying in a 30cm or 12" frying pan over a medium-high heat, you want a nice layer around 2-3mm (⅛") thick, this equates to around 125g (4 oz) of lard.
- Beat the egg in a wide, shallow bowl.
- Place the breadcrumbs in a second bowl.
- Remove the pork from the milk and dry it well, then season it with salt and white pepper.
- Dredge the pork slices with flour, then dip them into the egg and then into the breadcrumbs and coat well.
- Fry in the fat for 2-2½ minutes on each side or until nicely golden.
