Instructions

9 cooking steps

  1. Pound the meat to flatten a little then rub salt and ground pepper all over. Allow to sit for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavor.
  2. Dredge the loin chops in flour then dip in the beaten egg mixture.
  3. Place the chops in a container with bread crumbs and shake until the sides of the loin chops are coated.
  4. Heat a skillet or frying pan then pour-in cooking oil.
  5. Deep fry for 5 to 7 minutes. Do not cook in high heat as it will burn the bread crumbs before the meat is done.
  6. Turn-off heat and transfer to a serving plate.
  7. Make the sauce by heating a saucepan and combining all the sauce ingredients. Simmer for 5 minutes or until the texture of the sauce thickens.
  8. Top the fried loin chops with sauce and serve with shredded cabbage.
  9. Serve. Share and enjoy!
