Step 1
Slice the 1 lb pork tenderloin crosswise into 4 equal pieces. Pound each piece between plastic wrap to 1/4-inch thickness.
Step 2
Set up three shallow dishes: 0.5 cup flour with salt and pepper, 1 beaten egg, and 1 cup breadcrumbs. Dredge each pork piece in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs, pressing to coat.
Step 3
Heat 1/4 cup oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Fry the breaded pork in batches until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Do not crowd the pan.
Step 4
Toast the 4 buns in the skillet for 1 minute. Shred the 2 carrots into thin strips.
Step 5
Place a pork cutlet on each bun and top with shredded carrots. Serve immediately.
