Dust theporkloins in the flour, shake off the excess, then dip them into the egg, and then finally coat in the breadcrumb and feta mixture.
3. Heat the vegetable oil and butter in a large heavy-based frying pan over a medium-to-low heat. Fry the breaded pork for 3-4 minutes each side until golden and cooked through.
4. For the tomato salsa, mix the chopped cherry tomatoes, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, feta, and basil leaves together in a small bowl, and season to taste.
5. Meanwhile, cook the beans in a pan of boiling salted water for 3-4 minutes until just tender, then drain and refresh in cold water so they keep their vivid green colour. Melt the butter in the same pan, then add the cooked beans, a squeeze of lemon juice, some salt and freshly ground black pepper and stir until glazed.
