Milanese cutlets are an exquisite dish of Italian cuisine that embodies the sophistication and richness of Milan's flavors. This recipe combines tender veal breaded in a mixture of cheese and sugar, giving the meat a special caramel hue. Fried to a golden crust, they acquire a crispy texture on the outside and juiciness on the inside. The slight acidity of lemon juice enhances the flavor balance of the dish, adding freshness. Traditionally, Milanese cutlets are served with a side of boiled pasta or potatoes, creating a harmonious combination. Garnished with parsley sprigs and lemon slices, they become a true culinary masterpiece worthy of a festive dinner. This recipe has deep roots in Italian gastronomy, representing an elegant blend of simple ingredients and cooking mastery.
