Crumbed Lamb Cutlets (Australia)

Ingredients

• 8 lamb cutlets
• 1 cup breadcrumbs (I prefer winter wheat bread crumbs)
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/4 cup olive oil

Directions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

2. 2

   Beat the egg in a bowl shallow enough to hold a whole cutlet.

3. 3

   Put bread crumbs in a similar bowl beside the whipped egg & then do the same with the flour in a 3rd bowl.

4. 4

   Roll cutlets in the flour, one at a time, then dip them in the egg before coating them with bread crumbs.

5. 5

   Heat oil in a large skillet over low heat, then fry cutlets for 6 minutes, 3 minutes on each side.

6. 6

   On a baking tray, place fried cutlets on their edge so they form a rack & then cover them with aluminum foil.

7. 7

   Bake 20 minutes for medium or 25 minutes for well-done lamb.
