Pork Cordon Bleu
Pork Cordon Bleu is a delicious dish made by stuffing a pork cutlet with ham and cheese, then breading and frying or baking it until golden and crispy. The melted cheese inside pairs perfectly with the savory ham and tender pork, creating a rich and indulgent flavor. It is often served with sides like mashed potatoes, vegetables, or a creamy sauce.
