Ingredients
Beef
400g Quality Mark beef schnitzel
If pieces of beef schnitzel are large, cut them in half before coating
Crumb
1/4 cup white flour
1, beaten with 2 tbsp water eggs
2-3 cups breadcrumbs
For the breadcrumbs, use bread that is 2-3 days old. Use a food processor to make into crumbs.
1 tbsp parsley
Add 1 teaspoon of chopped thyme to the crumb mixture for extra flavour.
A dash of olive oil
To serve
cherry tomato
Just before serving, dress tomatoes, beans and sugar snap peas with a vinaigrette to which you have added 1 finely chopped shallot.
200g sliced green bean
150g snap pea
new potatoes
Boil small new potatoes in plenty of lightly salted water. Drain well. Cut potatoes in half, or into thick slices and place on a hot chargrill to colour. Only use a little oil if they are sticking. This is a good way of using up leftover potatoes.
Method
To Prepare Beef
To Crumb
To Serve
1
Use kitchen scissors or a knife to make small cuts around the edge of each piece of schnitzel to ensure they don't roll up during cooking.
2
Place pieces of schnitzel between 2 sheets of baking paper and quickly pound them with a meat mallet, rolling pin or the base of a small heavy saucepan to flatten them a little more.
