Ranks compare each pair with 20,000 random ingredient pairs on CompKitchen. How we score pairs

What each ingredient does

Thinly sliced beef
Provides the main protein that becomes tender during long, covered cooking.
Eggs
Bind the coating so the flour sticks to the meat.
Flour
Forms a crisp, browned crust when fried in hot oil.
Milk
Thins the egg mixture so it coats the meat evenly.
Oil
Conducts heat to brown the coated surface.

The step that matters

Cover and cook over low heat for at least 1 hour. Thin beef can dry out or stay tough if cooked too hot or too briefly. Gentle, covered heat keeps moisture in and gives the meat time to soften until it is well done.
