This is a tasty and juicy fried pork chop that is easy to prepare and to cook. Compared to other fried pork chops, this one is tender and not tough because it was soaked in brine solution consisting of water, salt, peppercorns, garlic, bay leaves, patis and lemongrass. The lemongrass is I think one of the secret ingredient in making a brine solution for meats because it rid of the gamy taste or “lansa” which ruins most of the meat dishes. And adds as distinct flavor to the meat. Just don’t over cook the pork chops so it will retain its juiciness and flavor.
