    Preparation Steps

    1

    Cut the pork cutlets into approximately 1 cm (½ inch) thick slices, then gently pound them until thin.

    2

    Season both sides with salt and pepper, then dredge the cutlets in flour, ensuring they are evenly coated.

    3

    In a bowl, whisk the eggs. Dip each floured cutlet into the beaten eggs, making sure they are fully coated on all sides.

    4

    Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the pork cutlets on both sides until golden brown and cooked through.

    5

    Transfer the fried cutlets to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

    6

    Serve the Párizsi Szelet hot with mashed potatoes, rice, or a fresh salad.
