Osmans Weiner Schnitzel Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Wash and dry meat.
• Tenderize with meat hammer if necessary.
• Put flour in a bowl.
• Put beaten eggs in another bowl.
• Put breadcrumbs in a third bowl.
• Dredge each piece of meat into the flour, then the eggs and then the breadcrumbs until completely coated.
• Heat oil in frying pan.
• Fry pork on both sides.
• Ideally the coating will be medium brown when done.
• Watch the temperature of your oil--not too hot!
• Squeeze a quartered lemon over the pork before serving.

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.

Steps:

• Pound cutlets thin between 2 sheets of waxed paper.
• Place flour in one dish, beaten egg in another, and bread crumbs in another. Salt and pepper each dish.
• Dip cutlets in to each dish in order: Flour, egg, then bread crumbs.
• Be sure the bread crumb coating is thin, but thoroughly covers the cutlet.
• Refrigerate cutlets for approximately 1 hour on a waxed paper covered platter.
• Melt 4 tsps. butter in a large skillet. Brown cutlets quickly on each side until golden brown and set aside.
• Melt remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and squeeze the lemon juice in to the butter.
• Stir mixture and pour over cutlets before serving.

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.

Steps:

• Place each veal cutlet between two pieces of plastic wrap, and pound with the flat side of a meat mallet until about 1/4 inch thick. Dip in flour to coat.
• In a medium bowl, stir together the Parmesan cheese, eggs, parsley, salt, pepper, nutmeg and milk. Place bread crumbs on a plate. Dip each cutlet into the egg mixture, then press in the bread crumbs to coat. Place coated cutlets on a plate and refrigerate for 1 hour or overnight.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the breaded cutlets until browned on each side, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to a serving platter, and pour the pan juices over them. Garnish with lemon slices.

Steps:

• Mix flour, salt, paprika and pepper.
• Coat meat with flour mixture; pound until 1/4" thick.
• Beat egg and water until blended.
• Dip meat into egg mixture, then coat with bread crumbs.
• Heat oil in large skillet; brown meat quickly.
• Reduce heat to low; cover and cook 30- 45 minutes or until tender.
• Serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Pat the pork cutlets dry with paper towels.
• Season them with salt and pepper.
• Set up a standard breading procedure in 3 shallow bowls or pie plates. Put flour in 1, eggs and milk in another, and bread crumbs in the last.
• Beat the eggs and milk together.
• Dredge each of the pork cutlets first in flour, then egg wash and then the bread crumbs.
• Transfer the coated cutlets to a platter.
• Heat a large straight sided skillet, add vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
• Carefully, transfer the coated cutlets into the hot oil to fry.
• Since they are so thin, the pork will cook very quickly, about 2 minutes per side.
• Drain the cutlets on a paper towel lined plate.
• Serve with lemon wedges.
