Preparing the Schnitzel

Begin by tenderizing your choice of meat (such as chicken, pork, or veal) until thin. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Dredge the meat first in flour, then dip into beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs. Fry in a skillet with sufficient oil over medium heat until each side is golden brown and crispy. Set aside on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Making the Mashed Potatoes

Peel and cut potatoes into even pieces. Boil in salted water until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and return potatoes to the pot. Mash the potatoes while gradually adding milk and butter until you achieve a creamy and smooth consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
