For the last few months, my husband has been requesting a breaded pork chop. The request was not granted not because I don’t want to cook it because I always remember my first try. I seasoned the pork chop with salt, dipped it in egg wash, coated with flour, and fried it. It was unsuccessful. I dislike the result so I don’t want to try it anymore.
But when I saw the instant breading mix in our pantry, I promised myself that I will cook breaded pork chop but as always I forgot about it. Hehe! So just this week, I put the breading mix in our fridge to remind me that I will cook a breaded pork chop, finally, I made it.
This was my first time using breading mix; I can’t even remember when I bought this. This mix is for chicken but I used it with pork and potato. Yes, you’ve read it right! Potato. I always love mojo’s of Shakey’s so I always fry potato at home though the taste and appearance are not the same. Check my first try here. But now, I was glad because I have a better version of DIY mojo’s.
Wash the potato, slice, coat with breading mix, and fry it.
I used the same procedure with the pork chop. Finally, the result was successful and my son liked it too. From now on, I will include breading mix in my grocery list.
Whenever
I want to cook fish fillet I always buy cream dory a.k.a pangasius or white
cobbler. I love this fish because it is so easy to cook but my husband dislikes it
because for him it is tasteless. Whenever I cook this, I always use the FEB
procedure (flour + egg + breadcrumbs). Even I seasoned my fish with salt,
pepper, and garlic powder it is still tasteless for my husband.

Fried Cream Dory Recipe
Last
month, I tried using an instant breading mix
and my husband liked it. He said “masarap ha, ano ginawa mo?” For the first
time, he liked my fried cream dory + lemon butter sauce. (melted butter + lemon juice + salt + pepper)
If
you’re wondering which breading mix I used….it’s no other than Crispy Fry. This breading mix is not only for chicken, but I also this for potato, porkchop and fish. It is true to his word,
food is crispier and tastier.
miss ko na ang mojos ng shakeys! i make my own breading mix at home. i use flour, little of salt and pepper then garlic powder :D pwede din lagyan ng herbs kung para sa chicken or pork chop. yum yum!
ReplyDeletehindi ka gumagamit ng egg wash?
Deleteyou mean breading first then egg? yep, i do :)
Deletewaaaaahhh gagawin ko to promise! i love mojos! :D great post sis :)
ReplyDeletethough hindi siya kasing lasa ng mojo's pero at least mas ok kaysa salt and pepper lang.
Deletemasarap tlaga mojos ng Shakeys ,,,, (from a Shakey's employee)
ReplyDeleteGinagamit din namin ang instant breading sa sliced potatoes!
ReplyDeleteMy papa always has breading mix in supply. For emergencies ba. Hehhee! =D
ReplyDeleteI use flour, cornstarch, powdered garlic (and maybe some herbs) and black pepper (konti lang). Cornstarch is the secret para crunchy sya :-D
