Categories: Frugal02
Yield: 4 servings

4 3/4 lb Pork steaks; deboned
1 1/2 tb Celery seed
1 c All-purpose flour
4 tb Peanut oil or rendered lard
1 1/2 c Paprika Gravy; see * Note
Freshly-ground black pepper;
-to taste
Salt; to taste

* Note: See the "Paprika Gravy" recipe which is included in this
collection.

Debone the pork steaks and pound them out to 1/8-inch thickness. Rub both
sides of the steak with celery seeds. Place the flour in a large bowl and
season to taste with salt and pepper. Dredge the pork in the seasoned flour
and pan-fry in lard or peanut oil over medium heat until golden brown on
both sides. Serve with Paprika Gravy.

Comments: When I had this dish in Budapest I was surprised at the bright
flavor. The Hungarians love pork and this treatment is just wonderful. It
took Craig, my assistant, and me a minute to figure this one out, but we
finally realized the key was the celery seeds.
