Rántott Hús (Breaded Pork)

This is one of Zoli’s favorites!  The onion rings were an experiment, but were delicious.  Good thing we spent about two hours at the gym prior to consuming this meal…

Breaded Pork
Ingredients:
- Pork cutlet or pork loin sliced about a 1/2 inch thick, tenderized with meat mallet
- A plate covered thinly with flour
- 2 large eggs, beaten in a container that can fit the pork cutlets
- Another plate covered thinly with bread crumbs
- Skillet filled with about 1/4 inch of oil, heated on high
Directions:
Spice tenderized pork with salt, pepper, and paprika. Coat with flour, then eggs, then bread crumbs. Place coated pork in the hot oil and fry until golden brown on both sides.

Onion Rings
Ingredients:
- One white or yellow onion, cut into rings to the thickness that you would like and separated
- Batter: one part beer to one part flour, whisked, enough to coat the rings
- Sauce pan filled with about 1.5 inches of oil, heated on high
- Salt to taste
Directions:
Place the separated onion rings into the batter and coat.  Place coated rings in the hot oil, only a few at a time so the batter does not fall off.  Flip rings until golden brown all around, then place on paper towel coated plates and salt.

Fries
Ingredients:
- 2 or more potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/4-1/2 inch thick slices, or however you like them cut
- Dutch oven or a deep pan filled with about 1.5 inches of oil, heated on high
- Seasoning: Salt (or Vegeta if you have it) and paprika
Directions:
Place cut potatoes into the hot oil and fry until golden brown (sometimes takes up to 45 minutes), stirring/flipping potatoes over occasionally (not frequently).  Remove potatoes once golden brown with a slotted spatula and place in a bowl covered with paper towels.  Pat the fries dry, remove paper towels, then add seasoning to taste.
