  • Rinse the bone-in pork loin, pat it dry, and cut it into small portions about ¾ inch (2 cm) thick. There's no need to pound the pork in this recipe — the pieces are already thin enough to cook through. Season each piece with salt and pepper. Now set up your breading station. Put flour in one dish — that's the first coat. In a second dish, make the egg wash (the second coat): crack in the eggs and beat them with a fork, add a little warm water, and whisk again until frothy. In a third dish, combine the breadcrumbs with the Parmesan (grated on the fine side of a box grater) and the finely chopped fresh sage — that's the third coat. Dredge each piece of pork in the flour first, shake off the excess, then dip it in the egg wash so the whole piece is coated. Finally, press it into the breadcrumb-cheese-sage mixture. Repeat with every piece. Lay the coated cutlets on a tray or large platter. Pour enough vegetable oil into a hot skillet to come up the sides of the cutlets, and heat it until very hot. To test it, drop in a small piece of bread — if it immediately foams and sizzles, the oil is hot enough. Using tongs, lower the cutlets into the hot oil and fry each one on all sides for about 3 minutes, until golden. As they're done, transfer them to a plate lined with several layers of paper towels to drain the excess oil. Once drained, move the cutlets to serving plates — they're ready. Mashed potatoes make a great side.
  • Enjoy!
