Schnitzel is a classic European dish made from a thin pounded slice of meat. Usually veal or chicken is used, beaten until tender, coated in flour, egg and breadcrumbs, then fried until golden. The result is a cutlet with a crisp edge and a soft, juicy centre. It is often served with a lemon wedge, fries, mashed potato or a light salad. Some versions add a sauce or cheese on top. The dish is equally loved by children and adults. In Baku restaurants schnitzel is widely available in both veal and chicken versions.
