I have a dear friend from Germany, Gabrielle who when visiting me made this wonderful dish. I changed the meat from veal to pork and made a few other changes. When I made it for her a few years later she loved my version. It has been a favorite in my home ever since. Enjoy

How To Make julie's viener schnitzel

  • Step 1

  • Step 4
    Next fry in clarified butter and real butter until golden.
  • Step 5
    When all is fried. Drain some of the butter out of the pan and add the (1/4 cup water and a tad more) to the bottom of the pan. Cover pan and put on simmer for 1 hour & 10 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges and a side of hot german potato salad. Recipe coming. Enjoy
  • Step 6
    Note: This dish is delicious because it's fried in butter. I know some people can't eat butter because high content in cholesterol. I think I spelled it right. Anyway, this dish will loose it's special flavor if fried in oil or margerine. So if you make it only occasionaly I am sure one serving wont hurt. I serve a glass of wine with this meal. Wine counteracts and lowers cholesterol. So go ahead and enjoy.
