WIENER SCHNITZEL (Breaded Pork Cutlets)
Source of Recipe
Another of Omi's recipes.
Recipe Introduction
This is Omi's signature Recipe. If you come to her home on a Sunday, be prepared to have a large platter of Schnitzel, mashed potatoes, veggies, dinner rolls and a salad.
List of Ingredients
1 C. shortening, heated in skillet until hot
6 pork cutlets, cut very thin and pounded
enough flour to coat cutlets
2 slightly beaten eggs
1/3 C. milk
1 1/2 C. plain bread crumbs or cracker crumbs (sometimes Omi even uses crushed corn flakes)
Recipe
Dip cutlets into flour. Mix eggs and milk. Dip cutlets into egg-milk mixture. Carefully coat with bread crumbs, not too heavily. Let stand for 5 to 10 minutes to seal coating. Fry cutlets in HOT shortening until browned on both sides, about 3 or 4 minutes. Turn cutlets several times during cooking.
Do not pierce. Remove cutlets from shortening with tongs and drain over pan for a few seconds before removing to absorbent paper.
