1. Place the pork chops between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound them until just 1/4 inch thick with the flat side of a meat tenderizer. Lightly season both sides with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
2. Place the flour mixture, egg, and breadcrumbs in 3 separate shallow bowls. Dip the chops in the flour, the egg, and the breadcrumbs, coating both sides and all edges at each stage. Be careful not to press the breadcrumbs into the meat. Gently shake off the excess crumbs. Don't let the schnitzel sit in the coating or they will not be as crispy once fried - fry immediately.
3. Make sure the cooking oil is hot enough at this point (about 330 degrees F) as you don't want the Schnitzel to sit around in the coating before frying. Use enough oil so that the Schnitzels "swim" in it.
4. Fry the Schnitzel for about 2-3 minutes on both sides until a deep golden brown. Transfer briefly to a plate lined with paper towels.

1. Place the pork chops on a cutting board and put a large piece of clingfilm over it and pound with a rolling pin, large knife, or mullet to about 0.2 inches (0.5cm) without making holes in it. Season with salt and pepper on each side. Repeat with the other pork chops.
2. In a shallow bowl, beat the eggs lightly with the cream. Put flour on a plate and the breadcrumbs on another.
3. Dip each schnitzel in the flour on both sides, then drench through the egg mixture, and lastly turn in the breadcrumbs until evenly covered but don’t press the schnitzel in the mixture.
4. In a large frying pan, heat 1/4-inch oil or clarified butter (about the thickness of a finger) over medium heat until a breadcrumb sizzles and quickly browns. If using oil then add 2 Tbsp butter to the pan, it will foam a bit.

1. First, prepare your workstation by getting three large plates with higher sides. Put the flour on the first plate, crack the eggs and whisk them with a fork until uniform in color on the second plate, and add the breadcrumbs to the third plate.
2. If there is excess fat on the meat, trim it.
3. Place one pork chop between two pieces of cling wrap (or put it in a freezer bag) and pound it with the flat side of a meat hammer until thin. You'll be surprised how large relatively small pieces of meat can get. At the same time, be careful since you don't want to pound holes into your meat.
4. Add salt and pepper to both sides of the pork chop, then set it aside. Pound and salt/pepper the rest of the meat.
