Cooking Steps

Make the rice
1

• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water. • Add jasmine rice and a pinch of salt and cook, uncovered, over high heat until tender, 12-14 minutes. Drain, rinse with warm water and set aside. • Meanwhile, thinly slice pear into wedges. • In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg, plain flour, curry powder and a pinch of salt until combined. In a second shallow bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs and olive oil (2tbs for 2 people / 1/4 cup for 4 people). TIP: No air fryer? Leave the oil out of the panko mixture!

• Dip pork schnitzel into egg mixture, and then into breadcrumbs. Set aside on a plate. • Set your air fryer to 200°C. Place crumbed pork into air fryer basket and cook until golden and cook, turning halfway, until golden and cooked through, 6-8 minutes (cook in batches if necessary). TIP: No air fryer? Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with enough olive oil to coat the base. When oil is hot, cook pork schnitzels in batches until golden and cooked through, 1-2 minutes each side.

Cook the pork & sauce
