Wienerschnitzel is my first choice when I go to a German restaurant!

I love veal! Any way!

Many people think Wienerschnitzel is a German dish, but it really originated in Austria. “Wiener” is Viennese  for Vienna, Austria.  

Typically it is served with a slice of lemon, sautéed apples, potatoes of some kind, like buttered potatoes with parsley or warm or cold potato salad and a vegetable.

At home when I make this I have to make sautéed apples as a side! I have a recipe for Sauteed Apples on my website.

This is my own Wienerschnitzel version. “Das ist lecker!”  

Enjoy!
