Country-Fried Steak with Mushroom Gravy
Cooking Light, MARCH 2002
I’ve made this a few times before. It’s always the same two things. 1 – How to keep the coating from cooking off when you first put it in the pan and 2 – How to keep the steaks from getting soggy while you’re preparing the gravy.
When I make this, the first side gets nice and crispy while I watch the flour just melt off the top as it’s cooking. It doesn’t seem to matter what type of meat I use, they all do the same thing. I think I will double dip the meat next time to make it extra crispy and see if that works.
The next time I make this, I’m going to preheat the oven and see about keeping the steaks warm on a roasting pan rack in the oven so the bottom isn’t touching anything while I cook the gravy. Also, I DO NOT use the dredging flour for the gravy. It makes it taste too funny. I use plain flour for the gravy.
It is a tasty recipe and I will probably make it again, but try those other things to see if it’ll make my problems go away. Hope this helps you!
