Thursday Schnitzel

How unusual I'm actually doing a post right after dinner; crazy!

Our plan wasn't to be here this evening, but rain delayed our departure for our camping trip. Today is a holiday, so dinner needed to be a "whatever is in the house" meal. There was some thinly cut pork loin (Nierstuck) in the freezer, so I thawed that out and made schnitzel.

The two deviations from the standard schnitzel program were to brush a bit of grainy mustard on the pounded out pork before flouring it, and using cracker crumbs instead of bread crumbs for the final coating. Both worked out quite nicely.

To go with the schnitzel there was leftover veggie salad from last night and some radish greens [biokiste] that I flash fried in olive oil and then let steep in some chicken stock and sherry vinegar to tame the intense bitterness.

Instead of wine we drank Ramseier Suure Moscht (hard cider). Andrea likes it better from a glass bottle (instead of the 1.5 liter plastic thing we have from Coop), but it went nicely with the meal.
