Ingredients
- 60 g (½ cup) cornflour
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 8 cream crackers, crushed to the consistency of fine breadcrumbs
- 4 pork chops
- 750 ml (3 cups) canola oil, for shallow frying
- thick oven-baked chips and steamed frozen mixed veggies, to serve
Onion gravy
- 25 g butter
- 1 tbsp canola oil
- 2 onions, thinly sliced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 carrot, cut into 1-cm cubes
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tbsp tomato sauce
- 500 ml (2 cups) chicken stock
- 75 g (½ cup) frozen peas
- 2 tsp cornflour, mixed with 60 ml (¼ cup) cold water
- black pepper, to season
Instructions
- Place the cornflour, eggs and crumbs in separate bowls. Dust the pork chops in the cornflour, then dip in the beaten egg, then into the crumbs, pressing to coat well.
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium–high heat to around 175˚C. Fry the chops for about 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked to your liking. Drain on a wire rack.
- Meanwhile, for the onion gravy, heat a large frying pan over medium heat and add the butter and oil. Fry the onion for about 3-5 minutes or until starting to brown. Add the garlic and carrot and fry for a further minute. Add the sauces and stock and bring to a simmer. Add the frozen peas and simmer for 1 minute. Add the cornflour mixture and simmer until the sauce is thick enough to coat a spoon. Season with black pepper.
- Serve the pork chops with the onion gravy, oven-baked chips and steamed frozen veggies.
