- preparation 15 minutes
- cooking 20 minutes
- difficulty Easy level
Ingredients
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped finely
- handful of continental parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp parmesan cheese
- salt and pepper
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 3 eggs, beaten
- topside beef fillets, thinly sliced and then beaten until flat
- 2 cups breadcrumbs, to coat
Resting time 1 hour
Instructions
Place the garlic, parsley, parmesan, eggs, salt, pepper and oregano in a large bowl.
Place the meat in the egg mixture and allow to rest for an hour, or longer if possible, in order to absorb the flavours from the mixture.
Roll the meat in the breadcrumbs and pound the breadcrumbs into the meat to ensure they stick. Place aside. (Optional – if a thicker, crunchier coating is desired, dip the meat in the egg mixture again then roll in breadcrumbs a second time.) They can be prepared and refrigerated for several hours before frying.
Heat oil in pan and fry until golden brown on both sides. Serve hot.
