Beefcutlets Recipes

CRISP FRIED BEEF CUTLETS

Steps:

• Combine bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, salt and pepper.
• Dip each cutlet in beaten eggs, and then dip in crumb mixture. Make sure they are evenly coated.
• Heat oil over medium heat.
• Add butter and, when melted, increase heat to medium-high.
• When oil-butter mixture is almost smoking, place cutlets in skillet, and fry until crisp and golden, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
• Drain them on paper towels and fry remaining cutlets in same manner.
• You can keep them warm in the oven as you cook the rest.

BREADED BEEF

Steps:

• Place the beef roast into the freezer for several hours, until very firm and almost frozen. Slice the beef about 1/8 inch thick across the grain. You can also ask the butcher to slice it very thinly for you.
• Whisk the eggs and water together in a bowl. Spread the bread crumbs out onto a large sheet of aluminum foil, and sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and Parmesan cheese. Mix all the crumb ingredients together until well combined. Dip each piece of beef into the egg mixture, then thoroughly coat with crumbs. Place the coated slices onto a sheet of foil on a baking sheet, and separate them with waxed paper as you dip and coat the beef.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large, heavy skillet until shimmering, and pan-fry the beef slices until golden brown, about 2 minutes on the first side and 1 minute on the second side. Fry 2 or 3 slices per batch.

JUICY BEEF CUTLETS WITH GRAVY (VIDEO)

Steps:

• Prepare the beef cutlets first. Using a cheese grater, grate the onion into a large bowl. You can also use a food processor. To the bowl, add the ground beef, egg, and season with salt, pepper and fresh dill. Soak the bread in a bowl of water and squeeze out a bit water if too much is absorbed; I like to use a 6-inch piece of baguette.
• Break the baguette into small pieces and add to the bowl. Using your hands, mix all the ingredients together until a uniform mixture forms. Use a measuring scoop (mine was 3 tablespoons) to portion the mixture into cutlet sized portions. Place the panko bread crumbs into a small bow. Press each cutlet into a flat oval shape, then drop into the bread crumbs, coating well all over.
• Preheat a large frying pan with a few tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the cutlets to the pan, spacing them out evenly. Avoid over-crowding the pan; cook the cutlets in batches. Fry the cutlets 4 to 6 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Make sure cutlets cook all the way through; check with a meat thermometer if need - it needs to reach 160F. Remove the cutlets onto a tray lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil; keep warm until ready to serve.
• Next, prepare the mushroom gravy. Melt the butter in a large saute pan, along with a bit of olive oil, over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and saute for 4 to 5 minutes, until the mushrooms are nicely browned. Season the mushrooms with a bit of salt once they're browned, then remove them from the pan into a large bowl.
• Into the same pan, add the diced shallots and grated carrot. Saute the two for 2 to 3 minutes, until the onion is tender. Add the garlic, season with salt, pepper and smoked paprika; cook for another minute or two. Next, add the flour and toss with a spatula until the veggies are coated; cook the flour for about a minute.
• Begin adding the beef broth, a little at a time and scrape the flour from the bottom of the pan. Wait for the sauce to thicken before adding more broth. Return the mushrooms to the pan and cook the sauce over medium heat for 4 to 8 minutes, until the sauce reaches desired consistency. Add the cream and fresh dill last and cook for a few minutes, until simmering.
• Serve the gravy over cooked egg noodles or mashed potatoes with a 2 to 3 cutlets on the side.

BEEF CUTLETS

Steps:

• Mix all upto the egg ingredients well.
• (You can blend them together too to a coarse paste for a variation) Form into 16-18 cutlets that are of a diameter of around 2 inches when flattened or make them 3 inches across so get around 11-12.
• Coat with the bread crumbs or semolina (I prefer the semolina).
• Heat a little oil in a pan (maybe a tblsp per round) to a medium high and shallow fry on low for around 5-6 minutes on each side (as many as the pan can take per round) or till they are cooked to the level you like.
• Add a little more oil if you require.
• I normally use non-stick pans and so need a minimum of oil.
• (1 litre lasts over a month and a half in my household).

BEEF CUTLETS EASY

Steps:

• Wash and tenderize the meat with meat tenderizer. ***Tip from Helen*** Cover the meat with the clear wrap and then use the smooth shaped side of the "hammer" to tenderize the meat.*** Season the meat with salt and pepper, cut into medium sized slices 6-7 inch long and 2-4 inch wide. (Or if your meat was cut before then leave as it is) Pour the flour in a disposable plate. In a separate deep dish beat the egg. (you may add 1 tablespoon of water for it to be beaten better and evenly). Season the egg mix with salt and pepper. Run the cutlet through the flour, then egg and then put on a hot frying pan (add the cooking oil just before putting your cutlets to fry). Fry the cutlets on each side until golden brown. Serve warm with mashed potato, rice or grilled vegetables. Enjoy! Helen @Helen's Cooking http://www.helenscooking.info
