Country-Fried Steak

Ingredients

Directions

In a medium mixing bowl, beat eggs and 2/3 cup milk.

Whisk in 3/4 cup flour and 1 teaspoon salt.

Pour cracker crumbs into a soup plate or pie pan.

Dip steaks first into the egg mixture and then into the cracker crumbs.

Press crumbs into steaks. In a 12-inch skillet over medium-low heat, heat 2 tablespoons oil.

Place prepared steaks in the heated skillet, and fry for 6 minutes on one side.

Add the remaining two tablespoons oil, and fry 6 minutes on the other side.

Remove steaks from pan.

Prepare gravy: Stir 1/4 cup flour into drippings in the skillet.

Add enough oil to wet the flour.

Stir flour and oil until fully mixed; a bit at a time, whisk in milk, and deglaze the pan.

Add onions, and after the milk comes to a boil, cook 1 minute longer.

Stir in salt and pepper.

Return steaks to pan, and cook another 20 minutes over very low heat.

When turning steaks or moving them to the platter, slide a large spatula under the steak so as not to tear off the now moist batter.

Spoon gravy over steaks, and serve.
