WIENER SCHNITZEL



Wiener Schnitzel image

This authentic Wiener schnitzel, simply breaded with flour, egg, and fine breadcrumbs, proves that fried food doesn't have to be heavy. Chef Ban will show you the secret to achieving an airy pocket of golden crust around the meat, which is the hallmark of a good schnitzel.

Provided by Wolfgang Ban

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups plain breadcrumbs, for homemade, pulse stale bread in a food processor until fine
3 large eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 quart vegetable oil, plus more as needed, total amount may vary depending on size/shape of frying vessel
4 veal cutlets, about 1 lb (454 g) total
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
Lemon wedges
Flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Sift the breadcrumbs through a fine-mesh strainer into a large mixing bowl, and set aside. (Save the coarse crumbs in the strainer for another use.) In another large bowl, add the eggs and whisk to combine. In the third bowl, add the flour. In a large, heavy-bottomed pot set over high heat, add enough vegetable oil to reach a depth of 1 to 1½ inches. Clip a thermometer onto the pot and bring oil to 380 degrees F. Meanwhile, prepare the cutlets.
  • Lightly oil one side of two freezer bags. Optional: Trim the veal cutlets to your desired size (Chef Ban uses pieces about 4 inches long). Place a cutlet between the oiled sides of the bags, then use the bottom of a heavy skillet (or a meat tenderizer) to pound the cutlets until they are of a uniform thickness, about ⅛ inch. Set flattened cutlet aside and repeat with remaining cutlets.
  • Place the cutlets, evenly spaced, on a wire rack fitted into a rimmed baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper on both sides. Coat first cutlet completely with flour; tap off excess flour. Next, dip the cutlet in the egg; gently wipe off excess egg. Finally, cover the cutlet with breadcrumbs until evenly and completely coated; gently shake off the excess breadcrumbs. Return cutlet to the wire rack, then repeat with remaining cutlets.
  • Prepare another wire rack fitted into a rimmed baking sheet for the finished schnitzels. When the oil is at 380 degrees F, gently submerge the first cutlet in the oil. About 30 seconds later, when it floats to the surface, use a ladle to carefully and continually baste the top of the schnitzel with hot oil until the crust is golden and puffs up, about 3 minutes. (This basting action helps create a pocket of air between the meat and the crust-the hallmark of a good schnitzel.) After 3 minutes, flip and baste again, 2-3 more minutes. (Adjust heat as needed to keep temperature at 380 degrees F.) After a total of 5-6 minutes of cooking, schnitzel should be puffed and golden brown on both sides. Use a strainer to remove schnitzel and transfer to clean wire rack or a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Make sure the oil is at 380 degrees F before cooking the next cutlet. Repeat with remaining cutlets.
  • Plate the Wiener schnitzel gently to avoid breaking the crust. Garnish with lemon wedges and a few leaves of parsley. Serve immediately.

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



Wiener Schnitzel image

Perfect golden Wiener schnitzel can be a work of art. Or it can be the worst dish of your life, more like a piece of lead. the eggs have to be beaten with a little cream to make them fluffier, the bread crumbs are not pressed onto the meat, and when you cook the schnitzel -- and you always do only one slice at a time -- you keep it moving in the pan, nearly covered with bubbling oil. That's the only way to get the coating on the veal to form a puckery, crunchy surface. I use the top round cut. The very white milk-fed veal doesn't have enough flavor. You don't have to worry so much about tenderness because the veal is pounded. Each portion is cut on the bias about a half inch thick. Make sure all the membrane, or silver skin, is removed. Slice each piece through the middle, not quite all the way, then open it like a book, a butterfly. Place it between sheets of plastic and pound it flat and evenly, not too hard. You can trim away any ragged edges.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/4 pounds veal top round cut in 5-ounce scaloppines
Salt and freshly ground white pepper
1 cup flour
2 eggs
2 tablespoons heavy cream
2 cups unseasoned bakery bread crumbs
2 cups vegetable oil
1/2 cup, packed, flat-leaf parsley leaves, rinsed, well-dried and coarsely chopped
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 lemon wedges
Cucumber or bibb lettuce salad in vinaigrette dressing

Steps:

  • One at a time, place veal pieces in heavy 1-quart plastic bag, and pound thin with meat pounder. Place veal on large platter, and lightly salt and pepper both sides.
  • Put flour in shallow bowl wide enough to hold a piece of veal flat. Put eggs and cream in a similar bowl. Beat to blend. Put bread crumbs in a third similar bowl.
  • Heat oven to 175 degrees. Line baking sheet with parchment. Arrange bowls near stove, along with a platter covered with layers of paper towel and a small plate covered with layers of paper towel.
  • Heat oil in an 11- to 12-inch skillet or sauteacute; pan, the deeper the better. When oil is quite hot, put parsley in strainer, put in oil, and fry 10 seconds. Remove parsley, draining well, and place on the small plate. Add butter to skillet, and adjust heat to medium.
  • Put 1 slice veal in flour, cover well, then shake off excess. Dip in egg, turning to coat. Put in bread crumbs, coating well, then shake off excess. Put in skillet, and fry about one minute, gently moving pan in circular motion on the burner. Oil should be frothy. When breading looks bubbly and starts to brown, turn and cook another minute, then transfer to paper-towel-lined platter. Repeat with remaining veal, adjusting heat so crumb coating cooks gradually and evenly, without burning.
  • Place the cooked, drained schnitzels on a baking sheet, and put in the oven until ready to serve, up to 15 minutes.
  • Arrange veal on platter or individual plates. Garnish with lemon wedges and fried parsley, and serve with salad.

WIENER SCHNITZEL WITH PORK



Wiener Schnitzel with Pork image

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons coarse salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
2 large eggs
2 cups fresh breadcrumbs or panko
4 pork loin cutlets, each about 4 to 5 ounces and pounded to 1/4 inch thick
Canola oil or other neutral-tasting oil, for frying
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 200 degrees while you prepare the three components of the breading. Sift flour into a shallow dish and whisk to combine with 1 teaspoon salt and the pepper. In another shallow dish, lightly beat eggs. In a third shallow dish, whisk to combine breadcrumbs and remaining teaspoon of salt. Dredge one cutlet at a time in the seasoned flour, turning to coat, and shaking off excess. Next dip in the eggs, again making sure to coat completely and to allow the excess to drip back into bowl. Then coat with breadcrumbs, patting firmly so they adhere but being careful not to coat too thickly. Place coated cutlets on piece of parchment paper or a large baking sheet.
  • Heat 1/4 inch of oil in a large skillet over medium heat until it is 350 degrees. Working in batches to avoid crowding pan, cook cutlets until golden brown on the bottom, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip with a flexible thin spatula and fry until the other side is golden brown and cutlets are cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes more, monitoring temperature of oil to maintain 350 degrees. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with a double layer of paper towels and keep warm in the oven.
  • Pour off and discard oil remaining in skillet, then wipe clean with paper towels. Working in batches again if necessary, melt the butter in the same skillet over medium heat until sizzling. Set pan-fried cutlets in the pan to coat one side with butter, then quickly flip to coat the other side.
  • Arrange the cutlets on a platter, sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges.

Tips for Making the Best Wiener Schnitzel

  • Use high-quality veal cutlets. Look for cutlets that are about 1/4-inch thick and have a good amount of marbling.
  • Pound the cutlets until they are very thin. This will help them cook evenly and make them more tender.
  • Coat the cutlets in flour, eggs, and breadcrumbs. This will help them to brown nicely and stay crispy.
  • Fry the cutlets in hot oil until they are golden brown. Do not overcrowd the pan, or the cutlets will not cook evenly.
  • Serve the schnitzel with your favorite sides. Some popular options include mashed potatoes, potato salad, and sauerkraut.

Conclusion

Wiener schnitzel is a delicious and classic dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can make the best wiener schnitzel that will impress your family and friends. Happy Cooking!
