Frying tenderloins is like frying chicken: All recipes are fundamentally alike, but each has a twist, ranging from how the flour coating is seasoned to what the cooked meat ought to be drained on (paper towel? brown paper bags?). Ingredients:
four 1-inch-thick slices from a boneless center-cut pork loin |
1 cup all purpose flour |
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
vegetable oil for deep frying |
4 hamburger buns |
accompaniments: lettuce, tomato, mustard, and pickles |
Directions:
1. Trim fat from pork loins. Arrange each pork loin between 2 sheets or lightly oiled parchment or wax paper and with a mallet pound until 6 to 8 inches across, about 1/4 inch thick. 2. In a bowl whisk together lour, cornmeal, salt, and pepper. 3. In a heavy skillet heat 1/2 inch oil to 365°F. in a deep-fat thermometer. 4. Dredge pork in flour mixture, shaking off excess. 5. Fry pork loins in oil, 1 at a time, turning, until golden brown, about 3 minutes, and transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain. 6. Serve pork loins on a hamburger buns with lettuce, tomato, mustard, and pickles. |
