      This is our take on the classic pork schnitzel, taken to the next level with creamy labneh and a spicy breadcrumb coating. Anything fried has that distinct air of naughtiness, and these golden encrusted circles are no different. Golden crust gives way to salty and savoury pork circles, delicately seasoned and wonderfully spiced.

      Good labneh takes such few ingredients, but in fact its magic comes from time. Time for the whey to slowly drip out of the creamy yoghurt, to leave behind a silky smooth, gorgeously creamy mixture that is so rich in texture and taste. With the pork, our labneh is so wonderfully refreshing with a wonderfully distinct tang coming from the lemon.

      We believe that Christmas is a time to reimagine the classics, to take food to the next level - these pork schnitzels are just the ticket for those Christmas Eve drinks with friends and family, all dressed in your glad rags. It's time for old traditions to meet a new age; and what better way to celebrate than with these canapés.

      Ingredients

      Method

      • First, the night before serving, prepare the labneh. To make the labneh, stir in a good pinch of salt. Then, place a muslin cloth (or tea-towel, or clean blue cloth), over a deep, big bowl and place the yogurt mix in the centre of the cloth. Using all 4 corners of the cloth, tie the cloth together so that a little sack of yogurt is formed. Place the yogurt wrapped in its cloth into a sieve and place the sieve over the bowl so that the liquid whey can drip out. To aid the process, place another bowl on top of the yoghurt to press it down. Leave the yoghurt to rest overnight in the fridge.

      • The next day, remove the labneh from the fridge. It should be much thicker with lots of whey in the bottom of the bowl. In a new bowl, place the creamy labneh and add in the garlic, cumin and lemon juice. Add a touch of extra salt and pepper to taste. This will now keep for up to two days in the fridge.

      • An hour before you need the pork served, start prepping the pork. To prep the pork, slice the pork tenderloin into cm thick pieces and season.

      • Set up your bread crumbing station with 3 bowls for your flour, egg and breadcrumbs. Mix the breadcrumbs with the cayenne, paprika, thyme and a good pinch of salt. Now, to breadcrumb your pork. First, put the pork into the flour, shake off as much as possible and then put it into the egg. Then coat it well in the spiced breadcrumb mixture.

      • On the hob, get an pan with about an inch of lightly coloured oil. Heat the oil until it sizzles. Carefully, making sure that the oil doesn't spit, place the breadcrumbed circles of pork tenderloin. Shallow fry the pork tenderloin until golden brown on each side.

      • To serve, arrange on a canapé board or place with a final dollop of labneh on top. An utterly delicious canapé that will be gobbled up in seconds.
