    The pork fillets were delicious even without the sauce. I made my own with a bit of light mayo, Dijon mustard and natural yogurt..a recipe that I got somewhere...

    The sauce ingredients specify, '1 lemon, zested'; I read that to mean just the zest, no juice. It was bland without any juice, and I'd increase the salt a little.

    It was great!!! easy to do with barely any problems. The only problem i had was the breadcrumbs burning a little bit. but i just put them in the frying pan until brown then popped in over to make sure it was cooked all the way through.
