Pecorino Pork Escalopes

  • 50g grated pecorino
  • 50g fresh breadcrumbs
  • 25g polenta
  • 1 lemon, zest only
  • 4 pork escalopes
  • 8 slices of pancetta
  • 2 tbsp seasoned flour
  • 2 beaten eggs
  • 3 tbsp veg oil
  • Add the breadcrumbs, pecorino and polenta to a shallow bowl, stir in the lemon zest and mix to combine. Top each of the pork escalopes with 2 slices of the pancetta. Dust liberally with flour, then dip the wrapped escalopes in the egg mixture followed by the breadcrumb mixture to coat.
  • Fry the breaded escalopes in the oil for 5-6 mins on each side, or until golden, crispy and cooked through. Drain on kitchen paper, season with sea salt and serve with lemon slices and any vegetables you fancy.
