Pork with vegetable salad is a harmony of flavors and textures, combining juicy fried meat with the crisp freshness of vegetables. This recipe, inspired by Russian cuisine, blends simplicity in preparation with rich flavors. Tender pork fillet schnitzels seasoned with lemon juice and black pepper release their juices when fried, creating an appetizing golden crust. A light and refreshing accompaniment is a salad made of crunchy iceberg lettuce, sweet green peas, juicy cherry tomatoes, aromatic radishes, and cucumbers. A dressing based on spices and vegetable oil adds softness and zest to the dish. This salad perfectly complements the meat, creating a complete and balanced meal suitable for both family dinners and festive gatherings.
