Set out a breadcrumbing station with a plate of flour, a dish of the beaten egg, a plate of breadcrumbs and a clean plate or tray for the finished product. First dip the pork in the flour, followed by the egg, then the breadcrumbs. For an extra-crispy finish, dip them in the egg and breadcrumbs again. Ensure both steaks are completely covered in breadcrumbsStep 3
Place a large frying pan over a medium heat and fill with about a centimetre of oil. Carefully lay the pork into the pan and fry for 4–5 minutes each side until golden and crispStep 4
