An easy and well-loved traditional dish from Austria!
Prep Time15 minutes
Active Time10 minutes
Yield: 4 people

Ingredients you need

  • 4 Veal cutlets
  • Salt According to taste
  • Ground black pepper According to taste
  • Vegetable oil For frying
  • 2 Eggs
  • 10 tbsp Bread crumbs

Garnish

  • 4 slices Lemon

Directions

  • Flatten both sides of the veal cutlets with the back of a knife.
  • Season the veal cutlets on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Beat eggs roughly. Parts of the egg white should still be seen. This will allow the coating to “puff” up.
  • Dip cutlets into egg and drip off excess.
  • In a suitable plate, transfer a portion of bread crumbs. Coat cutlets with Semmelbrösel.
  • Heat enough oil for frying. Non-stick frying pan requires only little oil for frying.
  • Fry the Wiener Schnitzel on one side for 4 to 5 minutes or until golden brown and turn it to the other side.
  • Garnish the Schnitzel with lemon slices and serve immediately.
