List of Ingredients
4 Tenderized beef cutlets (known in supermarkets as "cube steak")
OR 1 round steak, with fat removed, that you've tenderized yourself
1 Egg
1/4 Cup Milk
All-purpose flour
Cooking oil or melted Crisco
1/3 Teaspoon Salt
1/4 Teaspoon Ground black pepper
1/4 Teaspoon Paprika
1/4 Teaspoon White pepper
Beat together the egg and milk and set aside. Mix together the salt, black pepper, paprika and white pepper and sprinkle on both sides of beef cutlets. Dredge the cutlets in the flour, shaking off the excess. Then dip each cutlet in the egg/milk mixture, then back in the flour. (You're going to get your hands messy here, so take your rings off.) Set cutlets aside on a piece of waxed paper.
Heat the cooking oil in a large cast-iron or other heavy skillet over medium-high heat for a few minutes. Oil should be about a half-inch deep in the pan. Check the temperature with a drop of water; if it
pops and spits back at you, it's ready. With a long-handled fork, carefully place each cutlet into the hot oil. Protect yourself (and your kitchen) from the popping grease that results. Fry cutlets on both sides, turning once, until golden brown. Reduce heat to low, cover and cook 4 or 5 minutes until cutlets are done through. Drain cutlets on paper towels.
