01
Step 1
Start by heating some oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. In one bowl, mix the flour, and in another, whisk together the egg and water. Season your pork cutlets with salt and pepper, then dredge a few in the flour, dip them in the egg mixture, and place them in the hot skillet. Cook until they’re golden brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes total, flipping once. Transfer them to a plate and repeat with the rest, adding more oil if the pan gets dry.

Step 2
Next, toss the mushrooms into the same skillet, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often, until they release their juices and start to brown, around 3 minutes. Pour in the cream and let it simmer, stirring occasionally, until it thickens a bit, about 2 minutes. Finish the sauce with a splash of lemon juice and adjust the seasoning to taste.

Step 3
While the sauce is cooking, bring a big pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook until they’re tender when poked with a fork, about 15 minutes. Drain them well, then return them to the pot with sour cream, fresh dill, butter, and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Cover the pot and give it a good shake to coat the potatoes evenly.

Finally, spoon the creamy mushroom sauce over the pork cutlets and serve them alongside the herbed dill potatoes. Enjoy!
Why you’ll love it
This dish combines tender, juicy pork with a rich and earthy mushroom sauce, creating a wonderful balance of flavors. The fresh herbs in the potatoes add brightness and a burst of freshness. It’s a comforting meal that feels special without needing complicated steps.
How to serve
Serve with a crisp green salad or steamed seasonal vegetables to add color and crunch. A light white wine, such as a Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio, pairs beautifully with the creamy sauce and herbs.
Storage & leftovers
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently on low heat to avoid drying out the pork and to keep the sauce smooth. Potatoes are best reheated in a skillet to maintain their texture.
