First of all, beat the slices so as to obtain an equal thickness.

The ideal thickness for chicken is 4 – 5 mm so not too thin. the same thing goes for pork.

for slices of beef and veal the thicknesses are usually 2 – 3 mm and in this case the cooking time should be halved.

Then dip the slice well in the egg, then dip it in the crumbled cornflakes and finally in the breadcrumbs very well
