    Admitted that the thickness of the escalopes isn't specified, but surely three minutes each side wouldn't properly cook those pictured?

    kebabthief... i agree... if i get round to trying these out i will let you know... i'd be inclined to go for 3 mins each side on high then turn down for 10-15 mins total after that...

    I regularly make these and 3 mins each side is perfect. The trick is to bash them until they're no more than 0.5 cm thick...cook for any longer and they'll be tough!

    I make these too and three minutes is perfect - otherwise the pork will dry out and be tough and horrible.

    I got my pork escalopes from the butcher, and he prepared them to the correct thickness for me - v think, so only 3 mins or less required on each side! Loved the recipe, and the potatoe salad, so will defo make these again.

    Yum on a plate! It doesn't look enough food at first, but all the elements are so flavourful that it fills you up. I used grated hard cheese in a tub instead of parmesan as it was v expensive. Used leftover baby new potatoes from a Salmon dish I cooked the night before, though I agree this would have been better warm. Used Dr Oetker wholemeal breadcrumbs (as I don't have time to make my own). TIP: ask the butcher for pork leg steaks, then you can trim the fat off and bash them down to make your own escalopes; 2 large steaks cost me only £1.38 from Morrisons!!
