Wiener schnitzel classic

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 20 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make classic Wiener schnitzel? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. For classic Wiener schnitzel, it is better to choose young veal, without veins. Then it will be quite soft, unlike beef. But if you take beef, then you need to beat it very well.

2. STEP 2

   

   Rinse the meat, cut lengthwise into slices no more than 1 cm thick, and pound on both sides. I always beat through the film so that the splashes from the meat do not fly in all directions.

3. STEP 3

   

   Rub the meat with salt and pepper.

4. STEP 4

   

   Break the eggs into a bowl and lightly beat them with a fork or whisk. You should first wash the eggs using a food detergent to remove any dirt.

5. STEP 5

   

   Pour the flour into a bowl, add Provençal herbs and stir. You can use any spices you wish.

6. STEP 6

   

   Dip each schnitzel in flour.

7. STEP 7

   

   Dip in beaten eggs.

8. STEP 8

   

   And bread it well in breadcrumbs. Leave the meat to sit for 2-3 minutes.

9. STEP 9

   

   Fry the schnitzels in a hot frying pan in vegetable oil for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown over medium heat. You will learn how to choose a frying pan and oil for frying by reading articles on these topics. There are links to them at the end of this recipe.

10. STEP 10

    

    Place the finished schnitzels on a napkin to drain excess fat. Serve with fresh vegetable salad. Bon appetit!

I liked the recipe and decided to make a classic Wiener schnitzel using this recipe. Instead of veal I used pork. From the spices I took salt and freshly ground pepper. I beat the meat well on both sides, covering it with film as recommended by the author. I dipped the meat into flour, eggs and breadcrumbs. Fry as described in the recipe until golden brown. I prepared schnitzel for dinner and served it with vegetable cabbage salad as recommended by the author. It's incredibly delicious! The meat is juicy and tender! The crust is very tasty) Everyone liked the fried meat! I will cook this way again and recommend it to everyone. Many thanks to the author!
