Ingredients
  

For the veal cutlets

  • Olive Oil or Lard for Deep Frying
  • Keto Breadcrumbs As per the recipe below

Keto Bread for Breadcrumbs

Instructions
 

  • Mix the coconut flour, parmesan, parsley, garlic powder, salt and baking powder in a bowl.
  • Then add the egg, olive oil and whipping cream and give it all a good mix.
  • Microwave the mixture for 2-3 minutes till it's fully cooked.
  • Remove from the bowl and set aside to cool. I would recommend drying it out in the oven for about 10 minutes at the lowest temperature.
  • Once it's properly cooled down then blitz it in the food processor to form a breadcrumb.
  • Take the veal meat and using cling flip and a meat mallet bash it to form a thin cutlet. Make sure it's extremely thin as it will contract and get thicker when it cooks.
  • Season the veal with salt and pepper on each side. You can also use any other seasoning you like. However since it's a very thin cutlet be careful on to over season it. Season very lightly.
  • Beat and egg and then dip the veal cutlets in the egg and then in the breadcrumbs
  • You can either pan fry, shallow fry or deep fry these. You want to do it at a medium heat so as to get a nice colour on the breadcrumbs but not burn them. The meat because lean veal and beaten quite thin will cook very quickly. So about 3-4 minutes on each side should be enough.
  • Serve with a slice of lemon. Enjoy with a nice refreshing salad on the side.

Notes

You can also make the Keto bread with almond flour and you will need about 30 grams of almond flour for the same recipe as above. You could also possible use pork rinds. You can grind the pork rinds and mix it with the grated Parmesan and parsley.
