Pound the loin slices on both sides with a meat mallet to about half a centimetre thick. Season with salt and pepper. Set up three plates: flour on one, beaten eggs on the second, breadcrumbs on the third. Coat the slices first in flour, then in egg, finally in breadcrumbs. Press the crumbs on lightly. In a large pan heat plenty of oil with a little butter over medium heat (about 170 °C). Fry the cutlets for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Drain on kitchen paper to remove excess oil. ⏱ Timer: 3 min Serve with lemon wedges, mashed or parsley potatoes and mizeria (cucumber salad).

Tips
Pound it thin so it cooks quickly and evenly. Do not press the crumbs on too hard. Frying in butter gives a richer flavour. It can also be made in an air-fryer oven (200 °C, 15 minutes) with less oil.
