Ingredients
Quantities for 4 servings.
- 800 g Pork loin, in thick pieces
- 150 g Njeguši prosciutto
- 200 g Njeguši or kashkaval cheese
- 3 piece Eggs
- 100 g Flour
- 250 g Breadcrumbs
- 300 ml Oil for frying
- 800 g Potatoes, to serve
- 1 piece Lemon
- to taste Salt and pepper
Method
- Cut each piece along its length, stopping short of the far edge, and open it like a book.
- Beat the opened meat lightly under film and season the inside.
- Lay in a slice of prosciutto and a slab of cheese, close it and press the edges together.
- Coat in flour, egg and crumbs, then repeat the egg and crumbs a second time.
- Chill for twenty minutes; the coating sets and will not slide off in the pan.
- Fry over medium heat, six minutes a side, to a deep gold.
- Drain on a rack, rest it five minutes and serve with fried potatoes and lemon.
