Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make chopped pork schnitzel? Very simple! To begin, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. In addition to the indicated spices, you can add your own to taste, for example, paprika, suneli hops, dry herbs, etc. When using ready-made spice mixtures, keep in mind that they usually already contain salt and pepper and otherwise you risk oversalting and peppering the dish.

Step 2

Step 2
If you have a whole piece of pork, cut it into thin slices. Beat the chopped meat with a hammer.

Step 3

Step 3
Cut the chopped pork slices into thin strips. And these strips, in turn, cut into small cubes.

Step 4

Step 4
Transfer the pork to a bag. Add flour and spices. Shake the bag well so that the flour and spices are evenly distributed throughout the meat.

Step 5

Step 5
Place the chopped pork in a bowl. Add the egg and mix thoroughly. The minced meat should have such a viscous consistency that it does not break up into separate pieces when forming the schnitzels. If necessary, you can add a little more flour.

Step 6

Step 6
Form the minced meat into oval schnitzels the size of your palm and carefully roll them on all sides in breadcrumbs.

Step 7

Step 7
In a frying pan over medium heat (I have a setting of 6 out of 9), heat the vegetable oil and fry the schnitzels in it for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Step 8

Step 8
Transfer the finished schnitzels to a plate and serve with any side dish. Bon appetit!
