Peppercorn Crumbed Pork & Brown Rice
with Charred Corn & Carrot Salad
Let's hear it for brown rice - tonight's grain star, that creates the perfect bed for juicy crumbed pork. We've done things a little differently, by adding some black peppercorns to the pork for some extra kick, but also kept to our roots by adding a staple carrot salad to complete this all-rounder dish!

Cooking Steps
• Half-fill a medium saucepan with water. Add brown rice and a generous pinch of salt. • Bring to a boil over high heat and cook, uncovered, until tender, 25-30 minutes. Drain and set aside in a bowl. • Meanwhile, finely chop garlic. Drain sweetcorn. Grate carrot. • Crush black peppercorns with a pestle and mortar, or in their sachet using a rolling pin.
• When the rice has 15 minutes remaining, in a shallow bowl, combine the plain flour and a pinch of salt. • In a second shallow bowl, whisk the egg. In a third shallow bowl, place panko breadcrumbs and crushed peppercorns. • Separate pork schnitzels to get two per person. • Dip pork into flour mixture, followed by the egg, and finally in panko breadcrumbs. Set aside on a plate.
• In a large frying pan, heat enough olive oil to coat the base over high heat. • Fry pork schnitzel in batches until golden and cooked through, 1-2 minutes each side. • Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
TIP: Add extra oil if needed so the schnitzel does not stick to the pan.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine carrot, mixed salad leaves, a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil. • Toss to combine and season to taste.
• Return saucepan to medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook corn, until softened, 4-5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Return rice to the saucepan and stir to combine. Remove from heat. • Stir in Japanese dressing, until coated. Season to taste.
• Slice pork. • Divide charred corn-brown rice and carrot salad between plates. • Top rice with peppercorn crumbed pork to serve. Enjoy!
