1
Prepare the Coating
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, beat the eggs and mix with milk. Place the breadcrumbs in a third bowl.
2
Bread the Beef
Dip each cube of beef into the flour mixture, then into the egg mixture, and finally coat with breadcrumbs. Set aside on a plate.
3
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot.
4
Cook the Steak
Carefully add the breaded beef cubes to the skillet in batches, frying until golden brown on each side, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
5
Make the Gravy
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add 1/4 cup of the leftover oil. Stir in 1/4 cup of flour, whisking to combine until golden brown. Gradually add 2 cups of milk, whisking continuously until thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
6
Serve
Place the fried steak on a plate and generously top with the country gravy. Enjoy!
