Ingredients
4
lean pork loin medallions, fat removed
1x 150g
pack mozzarella cheese slices
50g
breadcrumbs (homemade or shop bought) or crisps, crushed
2 tablespoons
tomato ketchup
Grated
Parmesan cheese (optional)
Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C, 180°C Fan, Gas Mark 6.
Step 2
Place the leg steaks on a chopping board. Cover with a clear plastic bag and flatten with a rolling pin until about 0.5cm thick.
Step 3
Cut each steak into 4 small ‘bite sizes’ and place on top a slice of mozzarella cheese you may need to trim the slices.
Step 4
Squeeze 2 tablespoons tomato ketchup onto a plate and dip each ‘bite’ into the sauce. Place 50g fresh breadcrumbs onto another plate and season.
Step 5
Lightly dip both sides of the ‘bite’ into the sauce and then dip into the crumbs or crisps until well covered.
Step 6
Place on a non-stick baking tray and bake for about 20 minutes until crisp and golden.
Step 7
Serve with baked ‘chip’ slices, relish and large mixed salad (*to make the crumb cheesy add 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, grated to the breadcrumbs).
