Ingredients

  • 500 grams Pork loin
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
  • 100 grams All-purpose flour
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 2 tablespoons Milk
  • 150 grams Breadcrumbs
  • 250 milliliters Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Cut the pork loin into bite-sized pieces, roughly 3-4 cm in width. Pat them dry with paper towels.

Step 2

Season the pork pieces with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well to ensure each piece is evenly coated with the seasoning.

Step 3

Prepare a breading station with three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, add the all-purpose flour. In the second bowl, whisk the eggs with the milk until fully combined. In the third bowl, place the breadcrumbs.

Step 4

Dredge each pork piece in the flour, making sure it is fully coated. Shake off any excess flour.

Step 5

Dip the floured pork piece into the egg mixture, allowing any excess liquid to drip off.

Step 6

Finally, coat the pork piece in breadcrumbs, pressing gently to ensure an even coating.

Step 7

Repeat the process with all the pork pieces and set them aside on a plate.

Step 8

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat until it reaches 175°C (350°F). You can test the oil by dropping a small piece of bread into it; it should sizzle and turn golden within 10 seconds.

Step 9

Fry the breaded pork pieces in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook each piece for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and fully cooked through.

Step 10

Transfer the fried pork pieces to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 11

Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces, a fresh salad, or as part of a main meal. Enjoy!
