Instructions:
1. Prepare the Ingredients:
Pound the veal cutlets until thin. Season with salt and black pepper. Set up three shallow dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.
2. Bread and Fry the Schnitzel:
Coat each cutlet in flour, dip into beaten eggs, then coat with breadcrumbs. Heat oil in a pan and fry the breaded cutlets until golden brown on both sides.
3. Serve:
Serve the Wiener Schnitzel hot with a slice of lemon. Accompany with your choice of sides, like potato salad or lingonberry sauce.
Tips:
- Use veal cutlets of even thickness for consistent cooking.
- Press breadcrumbs firmly onto the cutlets for better adherence.
- Drain the schnitzel on paper towels after frying to remove excess oil.
