Schweineschnitzel
Yield: 6 servings
4 (6 ounce) pork cutlets
Salt and ground pepper to taste
Flour for dredging
1 Egg
1 tsp. Water |
1 cup Fresh bread crumbs
4 Tbsp. Butter or margarine
1 Tbsp. Capers
Lemon wedges |
Pound the cutlets until thin. Sprinkle lightly on
both sides with salt and pepper. Dredge them lightly but thoroughly
in flour. Beat the egg lightly with the water and dip the floured cutlets
in the mixture; coat with crumbs. Using the side of a kitchen knife,
tap the cutlets lightly so the crumbs will adhere well to the meat.
Transfer them to a wire rack. Refrigerate for one or two hours.
This will help the breading to adhere to the cutlets when they are being
cooked.
Heat the butter in a large skillet and, when it
is hot but not brown or smoking, sauté the cutlets in it until they
are golden brown on both sides.
Arrange the cutlets on a heated serving platter
and garnish with the capers and lemon wedges. Serve immediately.
Serves four.
