WIENERSCHNITZEL (BREADED VEAL CUTLETS)
This recipe is almost identical to what I had at an authentic German restaraunt. The recipe comes from "The German Cookbook" by Mimi Sheraton, which I altered slightly. I like to serve it with fried German potatoes and a melody of peas, carrots and corn.

- Allow excess lemon juice to drip off before breading the cutlets.
- Sprinkle a pinch of salt over each cutlet.

- one at a time, dip salted cutlet into the flour and lightly cover each side with flour.
- Then dip the cutlet into the egg mixture, allowing the excess egg to drip off.
- Then dredge into the breadcrumb mixture to coat.
- Place breaded cutlets on a baking sheet and low to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Heat shortening in a large heavy skillet.
- There should be enough oil in the pan for the cutlets to "swim".
- When the oil is hot, place one or two cutlets in the skillet at a time, being careful not to crowd the cutlets.
- Fry first side slowly until golden brown, about 4-6 minutes.
- Turn cutlets over with a spatula, being careful not to splatter hot oil.
- Fry on second side for about 4-6 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Drain on paper towels.
- If you have more cutlets to fry, then place finished cutlets in a piece of foil and keep warm in the oven at 250°F while you continue to fry up the rest of the cutlets.
