The pork:
heat the oil in an ovenproof frying pan. Season the pork
cutlets and place them into the frying pan. Fry them for 1½
minutes each side, then place them into the preheated
oven. After 3 mins remove them from the oven, pour off the
fat and add the butter. Place back in the oven for a
further 3 mins.
-
Once cooked, pour off the
butter, place the pan back over a high heat and add the
soy sauce. Boil for 30 seconds until almost completely
evaporated. Place the cutlets in a warm place to rest for
at least 6 minutes.
-
The mushrooms & sauce:
While the pork is resting, heat a deep frying pan with the
sesame and the other oils. Add the shiitake mushrooms, and saute
for 1 minute, then add the enoki mushrooms, the pak choi
and the stock. Boil rapidly for 1 minute, then add the soy
sauce. Bring to the boil, add the dissolved cornflour and
bring back to the boil, stirring constantly. Set aside and
keep warm.
-
To serve, spoon the mushrooms,
pak choi and sauce into 4 deep plates and top with the
pork cutlets.
