Next dip it in the egg mixture , then into the bread crumbs. and pat the breadcrumbs in well.

Sometimes if it doesn't stick well so I dip it again into the egg and then the bread crumbs. This is called double dipping.

This is what the schnitzel looks like before it is fried.

I like to lay them on a plate or pan for at least 10 minutes before I fry them.

They breading will get soggy after about an hour.

If I do them ahead I set them on a sheet pan and freeze them.
