About Breaded veal cutlet

Breaded veal cutlet, often called "Wiener Schnitzel" in its Austrian origin, is a classic dish featuring tenderized veal coated in flour, egg wash, and breadcrumbs, then pan-fried to golden perfection. Popular in European and American cuisines, its crispy exterior contrasts with the succulent meat inside. Veal is a lean source of protein, rich in vitamins like B12 and essential minerals such as zinc and iron. However, the breading and frying process can significantly increase its calorie and fat content, particularly if cooked in oil or served with rich accompaniments. For a healthier version, consider baking instead of frying or pairing it with fresh vegetables and light sides. This dish is beloved for its blend of simplicity and indulgence, offering a satisfying meal with room for mindful adjustments to suit various dietary preferences.
