This is nice! I did scale the recipe, cooking only two cutlets. I may have had a little more sauce because I used two smallish tomatoes. I also returned the pork to the pan to cook a little in the sauce before adding the basil, parsley and olives. And I definitely would not treat them as optional. This is very fresh-tasting, I quite liked the thinner sauce. Takes all kinds, I guess.Reply
