Steps:

• Dredge steak in seasoned flour, coat well. Transfer steak to a cutting board and using the "teeth" side of a meat mallet, pound the flour into the steak. The object is to bread the steak thoroughly. In a deep skillet heat enough oil and butter or lard and shortening to immerse steak until fairly hot. Immerse steak in oil and when nicely browned, cover, and simmer for a few moments, as when frying chicken. Repeat frying process until all steaks are cooked. Transfer steak(s) to a hot platter. Pour off all but 3 tablespoons of fat from the pan, add the flour and whisking constantly add milk or water. Scrape up any brown particles left on the bottom of the pan and incorporate them into the gravy. Season with salt and pepper or ketchup to taste. Serve steaks with mashed potatoes and gravy.

Steps:

• To make Chicken Fried Steak: Heat a deep, heavy skillet with at least 1/2-inch of oil to 340 degrees F. Alternatively, heat oil in a deep fryer to 340 degrees F.
• Cut steak into 1/2-inch thick slices to make 6 (6-ounce) portions and remove any fat or gristle. Pound it with the coarse side of a tenderizing mallet until it is double in size and half as thick. In a shallow bowl, make an egg wash by combining the eggs and milk. In another shallow bowl or pan, make a seasoned breading by combining the flour, salt, and pepper. Dredge the steak in the seasoned flour, dip it in the egg wash, and then return it to the flour and push the flour into the steak with your fingers so that there are no moist spots. Immediately slide the steak into the hot oil, in batches as necessary to prevent overcrowding, and fry on 1 side until golden and crispy; then turn over and cook the rest of the way. The steaks are done when you lift them with a pair of tongs and they are stiff, not floppy. Keep warm while making the gravy.

Add hot water to thin, if gravy is too thick. Remove from heat to prevent scorching. The gravy should be as thick as pancake batter. Pour over chicken fried steak and serve.
