Categories     main-dish

Time 2h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 26

1 lemon, halved
1/4 cup clover honey
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
2 heaping tablespoons prepared horseradish, drained
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh mint
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound fingerling potatoes
Kosher salt
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 pound slab bacon, finely diced
2 shallots, finely diced
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
1 heaping tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/4 cup finely diced cornichons
2 cups fresh beet juice
1 tablespoon clover honey
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups fresh breadcrumbs
1 cup all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
7 large eggs
4 veal shoulder cutlets (about 5 ounces each), pounded thin
1 cup canola oil
4 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • For the lemon sauce: Heat a nonstick pan over high heat, place the lemon halves in the pan cut-sides down and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
  • Whisk together the honey, mustard and horseradish in a medium bowl, squeeze in the juice from the seared lemon and add the dill, mint and salt and pepper to taste. Let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  • For the potato salad: Cover the potatoes with cold, salted water and bring to a boil. Lower to a simmer and continue to cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Drain and slice the potatoes into 1/4-inch-thick rounds.
  • Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook until golden brown and slightly crisp, about 8 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels.
  • Add the shallots to the pan and cook until soft. Add the vinegar and sugar and cook until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat, whisk in the mustard, add the potatoes and cornichon and gently mix until combined. Transfer to a platter and top with the crisp bacon.
  • For the beet reduction: Bring the beet juice to a boil in a small nonreactive pan over high heat. Cook until thickened and reduced to about 1/2 cup, about 12 minutes. Add the honey and season with the salt and pepper. Let cool slightly.
  • For the wiener schnitzel: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • Spread the breadcrumbs out on a baking sheet and bake until pale and dried, about 12 minutes.
  • Increase the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Set 2 baking racks on 2 baking sheets.
  • Put the flour in a baking dish and season with salt and pepper. Put 3 of the eggs in another baking dish with a few tablespoons of water, whisk until smooth and season with salt and pepper. Put the breadcrumbs in a third baking dish and season with salt and pepper.
  • Season the veal on both sides with salt and pepper. Dredge in the flour and tap off the excess. Dredge in the eggs, letting the excess run off. Dredge in the breadcrumbs and tap off the excess. Place on one of the baking racks.
  • Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat until it begins to shimmer. Cook the veal, one cutlet at a time, until golden brown, about 4 minutes on each side. Place on the second baking rack and finish cooking in the oven for 5 minutes.
  • Melt the butter over medium heat in a 12-inch straight-sided skillet. Crack the remaining 4 eggs into the pan, season the tops with salt and pepper and cook until the whites are set and the yolks are slightly firm, about 2 minutes. Gently flip and continue cooking until the other side is just slightly set, about 30 seconds.
  • To serve: Divide the wiener schnitzel among large plates, drizzle with the lemon sauce, top each with a fried egg and drizzle with the beet reduction. Serve the potato salad on the side.

WIENER SCHNITZEL

Categories     main-dish

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 veal cutlets
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Salt
1/2 to 1 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs, lightly beaten with 2 tablespoons cold water
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 generous cup fine, dry bread crumbs
4 to 5 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Pound the veal cutlets to an even, approximately 1/8-inch thickness, or have your butcher do this for you. In a dish, sprinkle the cutlets with lemon juice and let stand for 30 minutes. Season both sides with salt. Place the flour on a flat plate, and place the egg/water mixture in a wide, shallow bowl. Add the oil to the egg mixture and beat in with a fork. Spread the bread crumbs on a large plate. Dip the cutlets lightly into the flour, making sure to coat all surfaces, then gently shake off the excess flour. Dip the cutlets into the egg mixture, letting the excess drip away, and then dredge them in the bread crumbs. Let stand at room temperature for 20 minutes. Heat your largest, heavy skillets over medium-high heat and add the butter. When the butter is quite hot and the foam starts to subside, add the veal (cook in batches if necessary - but don't crowd them in the pan). If the butter browns too much after cooking the first batch, you may need to discard it, wipe out the pan, and add more butter for the next batch. Cook for 4 to 6 minutes on each side, until golden brown, and turn with a spatula (don't use a fork or tongs, or the breading may be pierced). When the second side is golden, the schnitzels should be cooked through. Transfer to a warm platter and keep warm in a 250 degree oven while you cook the second batch, if necessary.

Tips:

  • Use thin-sliced veal cutlets for a tender and authentic schnitzel. If you can't find veal, you can substitute pork or chicken cutlets.
  • Pound the cutlets thinly and evenly to ensure even cooking. You can use a meat mallet or a rolling pin to do this.
  • Coat the cutlets in flour, eggs, and bread crumbs to create a crispy crust. Make sure to press the bread crumbs firmly into the cutlets so that they adhere well.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) before cooking the schnitzel. This will help to create a crispy crust and prevent the schnitzel from sticking to the air fryer basket.
  • Cook the schnitzel in the air fryer for 5-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Be sure to flip the schnitzel halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
  • Serve the schnitzel immediately with your favorite sides, such as potato salad, sauerkraut, or roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

Wiener schnitzel is a delicious and classic Austrian dish that can be easily made in an air fryer. By following these tips, you can create a crispy, tender, and authentic schnitzel that will impress your family and friends.
