  6. Slice the remaining mozzarella cheese.
  7. Cut a pocket into the center of the 2 pork loin slices with a knife.
  8. Place dry breadcrumbs in a ziplock bag, crush them with a rolling pin to make them fine, creating an Italian-style breadcrumb mixture.
  9. Lightly pound the pork loin slices, then coat them with the prepared breadcrumbs while pounding further.
  10. Season both sides of the pork loin slices with salt and pepper to taste.
  11. Stuff the pockets of the pork loin slices with the mixed mozzarella cheese, ham, and anchovy. Gently press the edges.
  12. Dip the stuffed pork loin slices in egg to taste, then coat them thoroughly with breadcrumbs.
  13. Add a mix of olive oil and butter to taste in equal parts to a frying pan and heat.
  14. Place the cutlets in the heated pan and cook over medium-low heat until golden brown.
  15. Once browned, flip the cutlets and cook through while spooning melted butter over the top.
  16. Remove the core from the 2 medium tomatoes, trim the ends, and slice them thickly.
  17. Sprinkle salt to taste on both sides of the sliced tomatoes and drizzle with a little olive oil.
  18. Place the tomatoes in a pan heated over high heat and sear them briefly on each side.
  19. Sprinkle oregano to taste over the seared tomatoes.
  20. Arrange the seared tomatoes in an oven-safe dish, covering the bottom.
  21. Thoroughly drain the excess oil from the cooked cutlets with paper towels.
  22. Place the cutlets on top of the arranged tomatoes in the oven-safe dish.
  23. Top the cutlets with sliced mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese to taste.
  24. Sprinkle oregano to taste over the cheese-topped cutlets.
  25. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (392°F) for 8 minutes. The pork is almost cooked through; the oven's purpose is to finish cooking and melt the cheese.
