Wiener Schnitzel - Breaded Veal Cutlet Recipe
Flavors of Austria
Total time: 15 to 30 minutes
Prep. time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: A few minutes
Difficulty: Easy
Chef's Note
Always use a flat mallet to beat the meat; a ribbed surface damages the meat’s structure, causing it to lose moisture while cooking.
After frying, put the Schnitzels in a preheated oven for about a minute.
Serve with a slice of lemon and potato salad, or with parsley potatoes and cranberry preserve.
