Ingredients:
- For the Beef Chops:
- 700g (25 oz) prime beef chops
- 150g (5.3 oz) smooth processed cheese
- 10g (0.4 oz) fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 70g (2.5 oz) pickled cucumbers, diced
- 3g (0.1 oz) freshly ground black pepper
- 5g (0.2 oz) sea salt
- 3 large eggs, whisked
- 150g (5.3 oz) fine flour
- 150g (5.3 oz) panko breadcrumbs for a crispy outer layer
- An additional pinch of black pepper and sea salt for seasoning
For the Sauce:
- 60g (2.1 oz) smoked beef, finely chopped
- 10g (0.4 oz) rosemary, minced
- 15g (0.5 oz) bold mustard
- 10g (0.4 oz) garlic, crushed
- 150ml (5.1 fl oz) heavy cooking cream
Preparation:
- Beef Chops Preparation:
- Flatten the beef chops slightly with a meat mallet for even cooking. Season each chop with salt and pepper.
- Combine the processed cheese with the parsley and pickled cucumbers, creating a flavorful filling.
- Set up three plates for the coating process: one with flour, one with the beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs seasoned with a little salt and pepper.
- Coat each beef chop in flour, dip in egg, and then thoroughly coat with the panko breadcrumbs.
- Cooking the Beef Chops:
- Heat a large skillet with oil over medium-high heat. Cook the beef chops until they are golden and crispy, about 5 minutes on each side, ensuring they are cooked to your preferred doneness.
- Once cooked, transfer the beef chops to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
- Sauce Creation:
- In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium. Add the smoked beef and cook until it starts to crisp.
- Stir in the garlic and rosemary, cooking until aromatic.
- Whisk in the mustard and cooking cream, simmering the mixture until it thickens into a rich sauce. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper according to taste.
- Serving Suggestions:
- Plate the beef chops and generously spoon the smoky cream sauce over them.
- This dish goes well with a side of buttery mashed potatoes or a crisp green salad for a balanced meal.
