Crispy Coating

Three stations: flour, beaten egg and seasoned breadcrumbs. Whatever passes through them, in that order, comes out with a golden, crisp coating.

👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Spread the flour on a flat plate.
    💡The flour dries the surface, the egg sticks to it and holds whatever comes next. Without the flour, the coating tends to peel off during frying.
  2. 2
    Beat the eggs in a wide bowl.
    Bowl
    💡Work with one "dry" hand for the dry coating and one "wet" hand for the egg, so your fingers don't get caked in layers of coating.
  3. 3
    Spread the crumbs on another flat plate and season with salt and black pepper.
