added 3 months agoThat usually happens when the pan isn't hot enough when you first put the pork chop into the pan. It may be that pan was quite hot when you were ready to turn it but it must also be very hot when you lay it in at the beginning
make sure you have enough oil, as well - not enough won't create the buffer between the food and the pan.
Chilling the frying item in the fridge also helps the coating to adhere. Also, not overcrowding the pan, and like the answers above super hot pan and enough oil.
So agree with the 3 previous answers..hot oil, enough oil and chilling are key!
