Recipes extracted from Bondi Trattoria – Modern Italian With A View. Published by New Holland RRP $45. Available from all good book retailers or online: www.newhollandpublishers.com


Serves 4

INGREDIENTS

200 ml (7 fl oz) ghee 

4 fresh ripe figs, halved 

8 prosciutto slices 

2 lemons, halved and deseeded 

sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Agresto sauce 

125 g (41/2 oz) walnuts 

1 garlic clove 

2 bunches flat-leaf (Italian) parsley, leaves picked 

1 bunch basil, leaves picked 

125 ml (4 fl oz) extra virgin olive oil 

125 ml (4 fl oz) verjuice

Parmesan & lemon thyme crust 

2 eggs 

60 ml (2 fl oz) milk 

250 g (9 oz) panko breadcrumbs 

150 g (51/2 oz) parmesan cheese, finely grated 

1/4 bunch lemon thyme, leaves picked and roughly chopped 

4 tablespoons plain (all-purpose) flour

METHOD

Agresto sauce 
Place the walnuts, basil, parsley and verjuice into a blender and blend on high speed for 30–40 seconds. Slowly add the oil and blend well, add water if needed, season to taste. Keep to the side.

Pork 
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). 

Wrap the fig halves with the prosciutto and set to the side. 

Clean the top of the bones on the pork cutlets. Use a sharp knife to ensure there is no meat left on the bone. Not completely necessary, but it will make your dish look much nicer. 

Place the pork cutlets between two pieces of plastic wrap and lightly bash with a mallet or saucepan to flatten out. 

Crack the eggs in a bowl, add the milk and whisk together. 

In another bowl, add the panko crumbs, parmesan and lemon thyme leaves and combine. 

Place the flour on a plate. Season the pork cutlets and lightly flour them, dusting off the excess. Dip the cutlets into the egg mixture, covering the cutlets completely, then dip them into the breadcrumb mixture. 

Heat a large saucepan on the stovetop to medium-high heat with half of the ghee. 

Place two pork cutlets in the pan and cook each side until golden brown. Once browned, place the cutlets on a tray lined with baking paper. Strain the ghee through a sieve, wipe out the pan and add the remaining ghee. Repeat for the remaining cutlets. Place the wrapped figs flat side down on the pan and cook for 1 minute. Place on the tray with the pork cutlets and bake in the oven for about 12–15 minutes. Remove from the oven and rest for 2–3 minutes.

To serve 
Place the cutlets on serving plates with the wrapped figs and Agresto sauce. Serve with a lemon wedge.
