  • a small handful of flat-leaf parsley

  • 1/2 tsp salt

Method

To Prepare Beef
1

Heat the oven to 50°C.

2

Lay the pieces of schnitzel flat on a chopping board.

3

Use kitchen scissors or a knife to make small cuts around the edge of each piece of schnitzel to ensure they don't roll up during cooking.

4

Cover half of each piece of schnitzel with cheese, fold over and press the edges together to seal.

To Crumb and Fry
1

Add the aioli and panko crumbs to 2 separate shallow bowls.

2

Add the parsley, salt & pepper to the panko crumbs and mix to combine.

3

Coat each stuffed schnitzel in the aioli and then coat with the panko crumbs.

4

Repeat with the other schnitzels.

5

Heat 1cm of oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat.

6

When the oil is hot, add the schnitzel, 2 or 3 at a time and cook for about 4 minutes each side until the coating is golden brown and the meat is cooked through.

7

If you need to cook them in batches, keep them warm by placing them on a baking tray lined with baking paper in the warm oven until they are all cooked.
