San Jacobo - Spanish version of cordon bleu

Ingredients

4 pork loin medallions (150gr each)
Thyme leaves
4 slices jamón
4 slices mahón cheese

Flour for coating
2 eggs, lightly beaten
Bread crumbs made from day-old bread
Oil for frying

Preparation

Cut through the middle of each medallion and open out like a little book. Flatten slightly with a meat mallet. Season with a little salt and some of the thyme leaves. Top with jamon and cheese. Close over and seal by lightly tapping with a meat mallet.

Dust lightly with flour, dip into beaten egg and then coat with the breadcrumbs. Preheat oven to 180C.

Pan fry gently on both sides then finish in the oven for about 10 minutes until cooked through. Drain on paper towel and serve on top of some of the Asadillo (See recipe under Vegetable dishes).

San Jacobo - Spanish version of Gordon Bleu
Melted cheese oozing from the piece of fried & baked pork lion looked gorgeous and tempting. However, I enjoyed watching the preparation of the salad with tomato, coriander leaves, and baked capsicum, onions and garlic. What is considered as moderate oven temperature for baking for the veggies?

Easy - and delicious
I have made this several times - always found it easy and delicious - although making the little books is a challenge
