WIENERSCHNITZEL (BREADED VEAL CUTLETS)
This recipe is almost identical to what I had at an authentic German restaraunt. The recipe comes from "The German Cookbook" by Mimi Sheraton, which I altered slightly. I like to serve it with fried German potatoes and a melody of peas, carrots and corn.

Steps:
- Place veal cutlets, one piece at a time, between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound until thin, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Slice lemon in half and squeeze lemon juice over all four pieces of veal.
- Allow the veal to sit in lemon juice for 30 minutes.
- Allow excess lemon juice to drip off before breading the cutlets.
- Sprinkle a pinch of salt over each cutlet.
- Place flour in a large shallow plate.
- Beat eggs, water, and vegetable oil in a large shallow bowl. ~NOTE~ The vegetable oil helps to hold the breading on securely and to make the breading crisp.
- Place breadcrumbs in a large shallow plate.
- one at a time, dip salted cutlet into the flour and lightly cover each side with flour.
- Then dip the cutlet into the egg mixture, allowing the excess egg to drip off.
- Then dredge into the breadcrumb mixture to coat.
- Place breaded cutlets on a baking sheet and low to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Heat shortening in a large heavy skillet.
- There should be enough oil in the pan for the cutlets to "swim".
- When the oil is hot, place one or two cutlets in the skillet at a time, being careful not to crowd the cutlets.
- Fry first side slowly until golden brown, about 4-6 minutes.
- Turn cutlets over with a spatula, being careful not to splatter hot oil.
- Fry on second side for about 4-6 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Drain on paper towels.
- If you have more cutlets to fry, then place finished cutlets in a piece of foil and keep warm in the oven at 250°F while you continue to fry up the rest of the cutlets.

Steps:
- 1. Remove bone from steaks and cut into six serving pieces. Pound very thin.
- 2. Dip veal in seasoned flour. Then dip in egg. Then dip in bread crumbs.
- 3. Melt butter in a heavy skillet and SAUTE schnitzles over low heat until golden brown on both sides. (About 15 minutes)
- 4. Tranfer to plate. Serve with potato pancakes, German potato salad or baked potato, vegetable and rye bread or rolls.
Tips:
- To ensure the veal cutlets are cooked evenly, ensure that they are of uniform thickness. If necessary, use a meat mallet to pound them to an even thickness.
- For a crispy breading, use a combination of breadcrumbs and flour. The flour will help the breadcrumbs adhere to the cutlets, while the breadcrumbs will provide a golden-brown crust.
- To prevent the breading from falling off during cooking, press it firmly onto the cutlets. You can also lightly spray the cutlets with cooking spray before breading them to help the breadcrumbs stick.
- For added flavor, season the breading with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. You can also add grated Parmesan cheese or chopped fresh parsley for extra flavor.
- To ensure that the cutlets are cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The cutlets should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
Conclusion:
Veal cutlets are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. Whether you choose to pan-fry, bake, or grill them, these cutlets are sure to be a hit. With their crispy breading and tender, juicy meat, veal cutlets are a perfect meal for any occasion.
