Method
Prepare and Coat
Season the beef steaks with crushed garlic, oregano, salt, pepper, and vinegar.
Dredge each steak in breadcrumbs, dip into the beaten eggs, and coat once more with breadcrumbs for a thick crust.
Fry and Assemble
Fry the breaded steaks in hot oil until golden brown on both sides, then drain on paper towels.
Spread a small amount of tomato sauce in a baking dish and arrange the steaks on top.
Layer mozzarella slices over the steaks, pour over the remaining sauce, and sprinkle with grated parmesan.
Bake
Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly browned.
Chef's Notes
Ensure the oil is hot before frying to achieve a golden, crunchy crust without excess grease.
