April 11th

Classic Konieczny

This dinner brings back major childhood memories.  The only thing missing was a serving of baked apples (but it would have to be the frozen, microwavable Stouffer's brand.)

Fried Pork Chops
no recipe...this is just conjured up from memories





This was a classic dinner in my house as a kid and there are just some things you can not change about how it's served.
1.  The pork chops must be fried with a good crust.  I coated them in flour, then dipped in egg, and then coated in breadcrumbs.  Then I fried them in olive oil until they were brown and crispy.
2.  You must serve applesauce with the pork chops.
3.  Potato pancakes (aka latkes) must be served with the pork.  I just used a box mix because that's what we always had as a kid. 
4.  You need to have sour cream for the latkes. 

Grades:

Megan - A- (I gave these a minus because the pork lacked flavor in my opinion.  Maybe sprinkling it with some garlic powder or garlic salt in the breading would help.)

Noelle - A (Noelle was really surprised she was having applesauce for dinner and just couldn't stop talking about the fact that the applesauce was on her plate and not in a bowl like she usually has it for snack.  After she finished the applesauce, she ate a lot of pork and "potato cake" as she called it.)
