Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Tenderize the beef round steak using a meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/2 inch thick.

  2. 2

    In a shallow dish, mix together the flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.

  3. 3

    In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.

Breading

  1. 4

    Dredge each piece of tenderized steak in the flour mixture, coating both sides.

  2. 5

    Dip the coated steak into the egg and milk mixture, then return to the flour mixture to coat again.

Cooking

  1. 6

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.

  2. 7

    Carefully place the breaded steaks into the hot oil, cooking for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.

  3. 8

    Remove the cooked steaks and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Gravy

  1. 9

    In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add 4 tablespoons of flour to the oil left in the pan.

  2. 10

    Whisk the flour into the oil until smooth, cooking for about 1-2 minutes.

  3. 11

    Slowly pour in the milk while continuing to whisk, cooking until the gravy thickens, about 3-5 minutes.

  4. 12

    Season the gravy with salt and black pepper to taste.
