Recipe notes
Try this easy breaded veal cutlet recipe that is pan-fried with creamy paprika sauce and adapted from the 1907 Ali-Bab cookbook, Gastronomie Practique.
RECIPE Preparation
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter.
- Add the finely chopped onions and sauté until softened and lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes.
- Sprinkle in the 4 tablespoons of flour (singer) and stir to coat the onions, cooking for 2-3 minutes until the flour turns golden.
- Slowly whisk in ½ cup water, veal demi-glace, thyme, marjoram, and paprika. Season with salt and pepper. Simmer the mixture until it thickens, about 5 minutes. Set aside and keep warm.
- Season the veal chops generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Dredge each chop in the flour, then dip in the beaten eggs, and finally coat with dried bread crumbs. Press lightly to ensure the breadcrumbs stick well.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat.
- Add the breaded veal chops and pan-fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the chops.
- Once the veal chops are cooked, plate them and generously spoon the paprika cream sauce with onions over the top.
- Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes.
