******************************************************
You'll Need:
For the pita bread:
- 22 oz flour
- 1½ tsp active dry yeast
- 12 fl oz warm water
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tsp sugar
For the schnitzel:
- 5½ lbs pork tenderloin
- salt to taste
- lemon juice for the meat
- 10 oz flour
- 4 eggs
- 10 day-old bread rolls for the bread crumbs
- 1 lb cheese, cut into thick slices
Extra:
- 3 thick wooden skewers, approx. 14 inches
- 6 halved lemons
- oil for frying
- 2 lbs potatoes
- 14 fl oz béchamel sauce with chives
Here's How:
1. First prepare the pita bread dough. Dissolve the yeast in warm water and add the flour, salt, and sugar. Knead everything into a firm dough, place the dough ball in a bowl, cover with a dish cloth, and let it sit for 1 hour. Form the dough ball into a 1-inch thick roll and cut off ½-inch slices. Roll these slices into small balls, cover them, and let sit for 10 minutes. Now roll each of the balls into an oval shape. Grease and flour a sheet pa, place the pita pockets on the pan, and cook at 475°F for about 8 to 10 minutes. Once you have removed the bread from the oven, reduce the heat to 350°F for the schnitzel tower that will soon follow.
2. Cut the pork tenderloin into equal slices and flatten them. Season each pork cutlet with lemon juice and salt. Use a food processor to turn the stale bread rolls into bread crumbs.
3. Bread the pork cutlets in fry them in oil.
4. Cut 3 lemons in half, place three halves in the center of a pan, and stick a wooden skewer through each lemon.
5. Assemble the meat spit with alternating layers of schnitzel and cheese.
6. Cut the potatoes and fry them in hot oil for 4-5 minutes. Top off the wooden skewers with the 3 remaining lemon halves, place the finished fries in the pan around the schnitzel tower, place the pan in the oven, and bake at 350°F for 10 minutes. In the meantime, heat the ready-made béchamel sauce.
7. Once the meat has slightly cooled, use an electric knife to shave pieces off the schnitzel spit.
8. Fill your pita pocket with lettuce, fries, and a few schnitzel pieces, and drizzle some béchamel sauce on top for a truly unforgettable sandwich.
Wow, what an experience! If you're craving pork chops, but don't want the hassle of eating dinner with a fork and knife, this stuffed pita pocket is the way to go!
