Reviews
To be fair, my partner and I are in our mid 50’s and our stomachs can be finicky so we both minded the grease. I will not make these again for us. But this would of been great when the kids were little. Plus this recipe can be used with other meats or veggies.
Followed the recipe, and was delighted with the outcome! Absolutely delicious. Definitely going to be on my Super Bowl Sunday Party Menu
I really loved making this recipe. And it’s really good with the ending results.
I needed more flour but I may have had more than 1 lb of meat 🙂 Simple is always the best , hubby loved it 🙂
Came out very well. Will make again.
Used coconut flour and added chili pepper powder to the seasons.
It was way easy and super tasty! I wish it had more taste tho.
Excellent!! The only thing I did different was that I used the deep fat fryer. Really easy to make and the entire family LOVED it!!
The major problem with this recipe, it has no seasoning! I wouldn’t even make. A lot of the recipes on this site are so basic.
Good basic recipe. My granddaughter is very picky so this would be great for her. I would also add salt to the steak.
Made as written I could see it would be a little light in flavor. So I added some Worcestershire sauce to the egg/milk mixture and also added garlic and onion powder to the flour. This made sure there was plenty of flavor that didn’t get lost in the flour or the frying process. Because of those additions my husband said it was flavorful enough he didn’t need a dipping sauce.
This is a great recipe! we pounded, then marinated the meat for several hours as well as substituted Panko for the 2nd flour dredge. Amazing!
Followed the recipe. The steaks were still soggy.
Yummy! I added hot sauce to the egg mixture. Perfect way to use a poor cut of meat.
Not a bad recipe not sure I would do it again though the flour made it a bit tasteless so I had to add extra seasoning.
Good basic recipe, but these are so much better if you marinate your steak first. I use milk seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic and paprika, but you could also use your favorite steak marinade. The trick is to get some moisture and flavor into the meat itself so it will be much more tender and tasty after it’s fried. I also add some paprika to the flour and egg mixture.
Finally something different to do with round steak! In order to make it ‘paleo’, I substitued almond flour for regular flowers and fried’em up in bacon grease. Added garlic and onion powders to the flour mix. YUM! Also pounded the heck out of the meat and they came out tender. Made some aioli for dipping. Hubs says it’s a keeper! Thanks!
I think next time I will soak the meat in milk for awhile prior to making. I didn’t use the egg (I didn’t feel it was necessary to keep the flour in place). My kids loved these.
Anyone in the south knows that you use cube steak for this, not round steak. Cube steak is made especially for fried steak dishes. We call it ‘chicken fried steak’ in Texas! It might as well be our state dish.
I wanted something new to do with round steak and gave this a try. While it still doesn’t come out all that tender, this was a huge success! I did change one thing…I added more seasoning to the flour for coating the strips. I used some Cajun seasoning and garlic powder. My kids, who are very picky when it comes to meat, loved this! This is definitely a new item I’m adding to my menu!
With enough seasoning, these were yummy! I used a steak seasoning in the flour mixture and salted them after removing them from the oil. My four year old who wasn’t so sure he wanted to try them came back for more! I would definitely use my large electric frying pan the next time because using a normal frying pan on the stove took forever to get them all cooked.
