Using your hands, coat a piece of pork with flour and shake off any excess. Dip the pork in the egg and drain off any excess. Place the pork in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing firmly to evenly coat. Place on a plate. Repeat with the remaining pork, flour, egg and breadcrumb mixture. Cover pork schnitzels with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for 15 minutes to set.

Coarsely chop walnuts and place in a large bowl. Add the apple, celery, parsley, onion, mayonnaise and lemon juice and stir until well combined. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Cover waldorf salad with plastic wrap and store in the fridge until required.
