Pork Cutlets and Creamed Corn Sauce
Thin, thin slices of pork meat are dredged in seasoned flour and fried quickly in very hot oil. Crisp corn kernels are stirred into a basic white sauce and poured over the pork cutlets. This dish is similar to Fish Fillet with Sweet Corn and White Sauce except that I used canned corn kernels in this recipe.
A few notes before I start on the recipe: First, when slicing the pork meat, cut it against the grain. The best way to make sure that you can slice the meat evenly is to semi-freeze it.
Second, heat the skillet well before pouring in the cooking oil.
Third, make sure that the oil is very, very hot before dropping the pork cutlets in it. I don’t use kitchen thermometers; I wait until the oil is smoking and I know that it is hot enough.
Fourth, never crowd the skillet. Fry a few pieces of meat at a time. Otherwise, the temperature of the cooking oil will drop and, with all that flour, the pork cutlets will end up being soggy instead of crispy.
Fifth, red onions won’t be good for this recipe. Sweet white onions are best as they will go well with the delicate flavor of the sauce.

[...] To make this dish, I used pork round with the rind removed. Only a very thin layer of fat was left–just enough to make sure that the pork won’t stick to the bottom of the pan while cooking. And, having used up my jar of chili bean sauce, I bought another but of a different brand. This new chili bean sauce is much spicier than the old one. When I tasted the sauce while cooking, I knew that it would be too spicy for the kids. So I decided to serve the sauce separately. It was a pour your own sauce kind of thing. If you have the time, it might be a good idea to prepare another sauce for the kids like creamed corn sauce. [...]
