Set up a breading station: Place the flour in one shallow dish, beat the eggs in another shallow dish, and combine the bread crumbs and grated Parmesan cheese in a third shallow dish.

Dredge each veal cutlet in flour, shaking off any excess, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the breadcrumb and Parmesan mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
