Mod de preparare

Pas cu pas

1
Place each veal cutlet between two sheets of plastic wrap.
2
Pound the cutlets with a meat tenderizer or rolling pin until they are about 0.5 cm thick.
Aproximativ 5 min.
Nota bucătarului: Be gentle to avoid tearing the meat.
3
Season both sides of the pounded veal cutlets with salt and black pepper.
4
Prepare three shallow dishes: one with all-purpose flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with bread crumbs.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: Ensure the dishes are wide enough to accommodate the cutlets.
5
Dredge each veal cutlet first in the all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess.
6
Dip the floured cutlet into the beaten eggs, ensuring it is fully coated.
7
Finally, coat the cutlet generously with bread crumbs, pressing gently to make sure they adhere.
Nota bucătarului: A good coating of breadcrumbs is key to a crispy cotoletta.
8
Heat the unsalted butter in a large skillet over medium heat until it is melted and slightly foamy.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: Do not let the butter brown too much.
9
Carefully place one or two breaded cutlets in the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
Nota bucătarului: Cook in batches if necessary.
10
Fry for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Aproximativ 8 min.
Nota bucătarului: Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.
11
Remove the cooked cotoletta from the pan and place them on a wire rack lined with paper towels to drain excess fat.
Nota bucătarului: This helps keep them crispy.
12
Serve immediately with a lemon wedge.
