Although it is known as an Austrian meal there is a possibility that this specialty originate from Northern Italy where the Bizantine cooks fried meat in golden clothing of breadcrumbs just to swagger with their richness and that the recipe first appeared in Vienna only during the XV or XVI century. According to another theory, the key role was the one of Marshall von Radetzky, who imported a certain recipe that was later developed into pieces of meat thick as fingers; which were fried in flour, breadcrumbs, eggs and in lots of lard. Wherever the recipe comes from, the specialty has been, at least from 1857, known as Viennese schnitzel, and it comes from Austria now (at least as long as Vienna remains there).

| 1 com | beef cutlet |
| 1 com | egg |
