Method
1. Place the rice in a large bowl. Cover with cold water and gently wash the rice. Drain. Cook the rice following the packet directions. Set aside and keep warm.
2. Meanwhile, place 1 pork steak between 2 sheets of baking paper. Using a meat mallet or rolling pin, gently pound until 1cm thick. Repeat with remaining pork. Season.
3. Whisk 2 eggs in a bowl. Place flour and breadcrumbs on separate plates. Dip steaks in flour. Shake off excess. Dip in egg, then breadcrumbs, pressing firmly to coat.
