Ingredients

4 pork schnitzel steaks

1/5 cup polenta (cornmeal)

1/4 cup vegetable or olive oil

2 red-skinned apples, unpeeled, cored, thinly sliced

1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

120 gram baby rocket leaves

1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced

1 teaspoon dijon mustard

1/2 teaspoon sugar

1/3 cup shaved parmesan

lemon wedges, to serve

Method

1.Sprinkle both sides of pork with polenta to coat lightly.

2.Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large frying pan over moderately high heat. Add pork; cook for 2 minutes each side or until cooked. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels.

3.Combine apple, vinegar, rocket and onion in a large glass bowl. Whisk remaining oil, mustard and sugar in a bowl. Pour over rocket mixture; toss to combine. Add parmesan; toss to combine. Serve pork with salad and lemon wedges.

To keep schnitzel warm between batches, place on a baking tray lined with baking paper in a pre-heated low oven until ready to serve. Use veal or chicken schnitzel instead of pork. Swap rocket for baby spinach, and parmesan for blue cheese. Price will vary.
