Debone the pork steaks and pound them out to ⅛-inch thickness. Rub both sides of the steak with celery seeds. Place the flour in a large bowl and season to taste with salt and pepper. Dredge the pork in the seasoned flour and pan-fry in lard or peanut oil over medium heat until golden brown on both sides. Serve with Paprika Gravy.

Comments: When I had this dish in Budapest I was surprised at the bright flavor. The Hungarians love pork and this treatment is just wonderful. It took Craig, my assistant, and me a minute to figure this one out, but we finally realized the key was the celery seeds.
