Recipe: Chinese Crackers Pork Chop

I recently came across a Chinese pork chops recipe by noobcook.com (my favourite food recipe website) and decided to try it out. I have modified the recipe slightly as I'm not keen to purchase off-the-shelf breadcrumbs and lazy to prepare DIY breadcrumbs.

Crackers Pork Chop Receipe (Modified slightly from noobcook.com)
Ingredients

• 10 Pork loin cut to 0.5 -1 cm slices by the pork seller at my wet market
• 3 tsp light soy sauce 
• 4 tsp oyster sauce 
• Dash of black/white pepper
• 1 beaten egg 
• 5 pieces of Jacobs cream crackers crushed in a bowl 
• Oil for cooking   

Instructions
1. Tenderize pork chops by pounding with the flat blade of the knife. I use a pounding tool given by my mil as shown below. This is the most important step to achieve tender and springy pork chops! I pound diligently for both sides of the pork chops. 

2. Marinade pork chops in soy sauce, oyster sauce and pepper for a few hours or overnight in the fridge. I personally add a dash of Worcestershire sauce and mirin. 
3. If kept overnight, defrost the pork chops a few hours before cooking. When ready to cook, coat the marinated pork chops evenly in the beaten egg. 
4. Coat each pork chop (both sides) in the bowl of crushed cream crackers. 
5. Heat a wok with 1 tbsp oil. Shallow fry pork slices, in batches, until golden on both sides, adding more oil to the pan whenever needed. 
6. Place the pork chops in paper towels to drain excess oil before serving. Enjoy!

Mr Taro gave thumbs up for this recipe and declare it as his favourite dish for now. I served it with polenta chips with poached egg and cauliflower and carrots. Will share the recipe soon!
