Today’s Menu: Cubed Veal Steak w/ Spaetzle, Sugar Snap Peas, and Whole Grain Bread

 

 
Another humid day. No one out stirring around much, I’ve only seen a couple of cars even go down the street today. Kroger has a decent selection of Veal and I had purchased a Cubed Veal Steak a while back. So for dinner tonight Cubed Veal Steak w/ Spaetzle, Sugar Snap Peas, and Whole Grain Bread.

 
I set the breading three station up for my Veal, consisting of Flour, Egg Wash (Egg Beater’s) seasoned with Paprika, and Progresso Italian Style Bread Crumbs seasoned with Kraft Grated Parm Cheese. First rolling the Veal in Flour, then Egg wash, and then Bread Crumbs. I pan fried it on medium heat in Canola Oil, about 4 minutes per side. Came out beautifully browned, moist, and tender!

 
For side dishes to go with my Veal I prepared some Spaetzle. Which is a German Dumpling. At the end of the post I left a little history of Spaetzle and product info. I boiled it in hot water for about 25 minutes and seasoned it with Sea Salt and Ground Black Pepper. I added a little I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter and Parsley to it when it was ready to serve. Very tasty and goes very well with Veal or Pork. I also heated up a bag of Walmart Marketside Sugar Snap Peas, just microwave in the steamable bag for 2 minutes. My parents were going to eat out tonight until they got a taste of what I prepared, they ate at home tonight! Also had a slice of Healthy Life Whole Grain Bread. For dessert later a Jello Sugarless Double Chocolate Pudding.

 

 

 
Spaetzle

Spaetzle [SHPEHT-sluh; SHPEHT-sehl; SHPEHT-slee] Literally translated from German as “little sparrow,” spaetzle is a dish of tiny noodles or dumplings made with flour, eggs, water or milk, salt and sometimes nutmeg. The spaetzle dough can be firm enough to be rolled and cut into slivers or soft enough to be forced through a sieve, colander or spaetzle-maker with large holes. The small pieces of dough are usually boiled (poached) before being tossed with butter or added to soups or other dishes. In Germany, spaetzle is served as a side dish much like potatoes or rice, and is often accompanied by a sauce or gravy. The cooked spaetzle can also be pan-fried with a little butter and onions (usually a good left-over idea).
