Veal cutlets are a simple way to make veal steaks just that extra bit special. Lightly cooked in butter and oil and topped with lemon completes this tasty dish. This dish goes well with lots of different vegetables, pictured here with steamed balsamic green beans. We also love placing slices of bread into the pan after the veal has been cooked and the heat is off. Leave it in for 5 minutes and the bread becomes toasty and buttery.

Ingredients

  • 4 veal steaks – approx. 150g / 5oz, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg – beated
  • 8 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 lemon – cut into wedges
