Schnitzel with Jessica Fostekew
A breaded cutlet by any other name? Andi and Jessica discuss the unique charm of the schnitzel.
Food-loving comedian Jessica Fostekew is Andi Oliver鈥檚 guest at the One Dish table this week and she鈥檚 talking about an Austrian family favourite - schnitzel. Whether cold from the fridge or freshly bubbling and crispy from the pan, Jessica is always up for some schnitzel.
Andi and Jessica learn about the 1st century Roman gourmand who first recorded a version of this dish, and discuss the respective merits of other breaded cutlets (tonkatsu or parmo, anyone?) as well as how making schnitzel yourself can save your sad ends of stale bread from the bin.
