Pork Schnitzel


These schnitzels from Save On Foods taste great and are super easy to prepare (assuming all stores have the same seasoning). They are seasoned at the store and the seasoning tastes great, it even has enough salt. All I have to do is make sure the oil is hot. If the oil isn't hot enough, the breading sinks through the thin layer of oil and cooks onto the pan. Hot oil cooks the breading before it can stick to the pan.

The rice is basmati with salt, olive oil and a few drops of lemon juice. Not enough lemon juice to taste it, but enough to make the rice a bit acidic and bring out it's flavour. Done this way it doesn't need anything else to flavour it.

The salad was iceberg lettuce, English cucumber, tomato, black olives, chives, fresh golden oregano and feta cheese. 

Vinaigrette

1 tbsp olive oil
1-2 tsp white wine vinegar
1/2 tsp salt
pepper

Whisk, toss and plate.

The condiment with the pork is Fern's ketchup of onions, tomato and pear. 

The meal was wonderful. The only flaw was the bland, flavourless black olives. I tried a can of Lindsay olives, I think it has a red label. The salad would have been better without them.
