1
Prepare the Steak
Tenderize the beef round steak using a meat mallet until it's about 1/2 inch thick. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
2
Make the Batter
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, whisk together the milk and eggs. Gradually mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until a smooth batter forms.
3
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
4
Fry the Steak
Dip each piece of steak into the batter, allowing excess to drip off. Carefully place the battered steak into the hot oil. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
5
Drain and Serve
Remove the steak from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your choice of gravy or sides.
