VEAL MILANESE



Veal Milanese image

Veal Milanese (or as the Italians call it 'Cotleta Alla Milanese') is a simple Italian dish of breaded veal cutlets, that are coated with flour, egg and breadcrumbs, then fried until golden brown. They can be served with just lemon wedges, or with your favorite topping, or with pasta.

Categories     Main Course

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb Veal cutlets
1 cup Flour
2 Eggs
1 cup Breadcrumbs
Salt & Pepper
1/2 cup Clarified Butter or Cooking Oil (for frying)
1/2 Lemon (Quartered)

Steps:

  • Prepare your dishes for breading - beat your eggs in a shallow bowl, add flour and bread crumbs to two separate plates.
  • Season your veal cutlets with salt and pepper.
  • Bread all your cutlets - start with flour (shake off the excess), then the egg, and then the breadcrumbs, then set aside.
  • Preheat your oven to a very low temperature of 200F to keep your cooked veal cutlets warm until you finish up all frying.
  • Preheat your cast-iron skillet until hot, add the clarified butter or oil and let it heat up until hot (about 375 F).
  • Fry your veal cutlets in batches for about 3-4 minutes per side (don't overcrowd the pan as the oil will lose its temperature and the cutlets can get soggy).
  • Remove cooked cutlets onto a rack with baking sheet and place in the oven to keep them warm.
  • Once all your veal cutlets are fried, place them on a serving plate with lemon wedges and serve.

MILANESE VEAL CUTLETS



Milanese veal cutlets image

To perfect this Italian classic, dip the chops twice in egg and breadcrumbs to make them extra crisp - and if you can't get veal, use chicken or lean pork

Provided by Antonio Carluccio

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 veal cutlets (about 200g each), bones still attached
4 eggs
10 basil leaves , finely chopped
2 tbsp finely grated parmesan
200g dried breadcrumbs
olive oil , for shallow-frying
lemon wedges , fried courgettes and spring salad, to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Use a tenderiser or rolling pin to flatten the chops, leaving the bone attached, then trim away the fat.
  • Beat the eggs, then mix in the basil, parmesan and some seasoning. Transfer the mixture to a plate or shallow bowl, then spread the breadcrumbs out on another plate. Dip each of the chops in the egg mixture, then immediately roll them in the breadcrumbs to thoroughly coat them. Repeat this process to give the chops a double layer of egg and breadcrumbs.
  • Heat enough oil to cover the base of a large frying pan. Working in batches, fry the chops over a gentle heat for 3-4 mins each side, until the breadcrumbs turn a deep gold (you may need to add more oil to the pan as you go). Serve with a lemon wedge, some fried courgettes and a spring salad, if you like.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality veal cutlets. Look for veal that is pale pink in color and has a fine grain. Avoid veal that is dark pink or has a coarse grain.
  • Pound the veal cutlets to an even thickness. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Season the veal cutlets with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or Italian seasoning.
  • Dredge the veal cutlets in flour. This will help the egg wash and breadcrumbs adhere to the cutlets.
  • Dip the veal cutlets in the egg wash. This will help the breadcrumbs adhere to the cutlets.
  • Coat the veal cutlets in breadcrumbs. Press the breadcrumbs into the cutlets so that they adhere.
  • Pan-fry the veal cutlets in butter or olive oil. Cook the cutlets for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through.
  • Serve the veal cutlets with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
