Wiener Schnitzel
- 4 -8 veal escalopes, flattened (about 1 1/2 pounds)
- 6 tablespoons clarified butter (for frying) or 6 tablespoons oil (for frying)
- 2 lemons, halved
- 14 cup flour
- 14 teaspoon salt
- 1 pinch pepper
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 teaspoon oil
- 1 pinch salt
- 12 cup dry white breadcrumb
- Combine flour, salt and pepper to make a 'seasoned flour.'
- Combine egg, oil and pinch of salt.
- Coat escalopes with seasoned flour, patting it in thoroughly.
- Brush with beaten egg mixture and then coat with breadcrumbs, pressing crumbs on well.
- Heat butter or oil (or a combination of oil and butter) in a large skillet and fry escalopes over medium heat for 3 - 4 minutes on each side until golden brown and tender.
- For a crisp, even coating, do not let escalopes touch each other in pan and do not move them for the first 2 - 3 minutes of cooking so a coating can form.
- Drain escalopes thoroughly on paper towels and arrange on a platter.
- Garnish with lemon halves and serve at once.
