PORK SCHNITZEL
WITH GRILLED BRIE
& WARM SALSA

You will need:
1 large Pork Schnitzel per person
40g of Brie per schnitzel, sliced thinly, or Blue Cheese (depending on preference)
2 Cherry or Baby Plum Tomatoes per schnitzel.
freshly ground Black Pepper
knob of Butter

Salsa (serves 4)
1 large clove of Garlic, finely chopped
1 Red Onion, finely chopped
6 medium Mushrooms, finely chopped
30g dried small capers, soaked and drained
2 large Gherkins, finely chopped
1 tin Chopped Tomatoes
1/3 glass of Red wine
3 ‘glugs’ of good Balsamic Vinegar
freshly ground Black Pepper
2 pinches of dried basil (if no fresh)
1 pinch of dried mint (if no fresh)
Salt
knob of Butter

Method:
Gently fry the schnitzel in a little butter at a medium heat for 2-3 minutes per side.
Once the second side is cooked through, place on slices of brie. Lay sliced tomato on top, season and place under grill to finish.

For the salsa: In a small saucepan sauté the onions and garlic in the butter.
When the onions are transparent add the mushrooms. Stir frequently and add the herbs and seasoning.
Once the mushrooms have absorbed all the moisture add the chopped tomatoes and red wine and vinegar. Bring to boil and simmer for 5 minutes or until reduced to desired consistency.

Serve the salsa warm with the schnitzel, salad leaves and crusty fresh bread.
