Note that I'm right-handed. If you are left-handed, arrange everything the other way round (final plate on the right).

Remarks
You can use pork instead of veal if you prefer.
It is quicker just to dip the escalopes once, but the coating will not be as crisp.

How to cook potato grenaille
The French call very small potatoes "grenaille". This is a typical way of cooking them: the tiny potatoes are pan-fried in their skins and make an excellent accompanient for meat. Grenaille can be made with any kind of potato; it is a question of size, rather than variety, though I think that firm-textured potatoes, such as rattes or charlottes, work best. I am using rattes in the photos. The cooking is a combined method: boiling first, then frying. This is quicker than using a single method. September 16th 2015484 K4.5 45 min.
