👉🏻Ingredients list⚠️

  • Pork chop (pork tenderloin or pork shoulder): 1 piece, about three fingers wide in thickness, ensuring it is fresh and boneless.

  • Salt: to taste, for seasoning.

  • Black pepper: to taste, for added flavor.

  • Egg: 1, for marinating.

  • Sweet potato starch: as needed, to lock in juices.

  • Olive oil or soybean oil: as needed, for frying.

  • Other spices (optional): such as lemon juice, butter, garlic, barbecue sauce, etc., according to personal preference.

Fried pork chop is not just a dish; it's an art form. A high-quality pork chop, after being marinated and fried, becomes golden and crispy, with an enticing aroma that lingers in the air. Each bite is full of meat juices and the fragrance of spices, leaving a lingering taste. Whether eaten alone or served with rice, fried pork chop brings a sense of full happiness.

👉🏻✨DIRECTIONS:

  1. Marinate the Pork Chop: Use the back of a knife to gently tenderize the pork chop. Sprinkle salt and black pepper evenly on both sides, then pour over beaten egg, and marinate for at least 30 minutes to allow the pork chop to fully absorb the seasonings.

  2. Coat with Starch: Coat the marinated pork chop with a thin layer of sweet potato starch to lock in juices.

  3. Fry: Heat a pan with cold oil, and once the oil is hot, place the pork chop in. Fry over medium heat until golden brown on each side, about 3-4 minutes. Turn gently to avoid damaging the shape of the pork chop.

  4. Season: According to personal preference, sprinkle garlic butter, squeeze lemon juice, or brush barbecue sauce on the fried pork chop to add flavor.

  5. Serve: Cut the fried pork chop into small pieces and serve.

👉🏻✨TIPS

  • Tenderize the pork chop with moderate force to avoid dispersing the meat.

  • Marinate for at least 30 minutes to allow the pork chop to fully absorb the seasonings.
