Veal Cordon Bleu Recipe
This easy veal cordon bleu recipe is my father-in-law's favourite dish when they visit our home. He always asks us to prepare this meal for them during their visits. It has become a tradition to serve cordon blue during all family visits to our home and everyone loves it, including my little niece.
Cordon bleu is a dish of veal, pork, or chicken, breaded and wrapped around ham and cheese filling and pan-fried to golden deliciousness. The phrase cordon blee means the highest class or standard of quality in cooking. It is interesting that a simple meal like cordon bleu is referred to as the highest quality in cooking. The phrase should not be confused with the cordon-bleu pet bird, which in my opinion should not be eaten.
We chose Gruyère cheese for the filling. It is a hard swiss cheese, ideal for melting. Jarlsberg or Emmental shouild also work well.
Thank you and happy cordon bleu cooking.

Ingredients
Directions
- Beat the veal fillets with the spiky side of the tenderizing hammer until thin and flat
- Place a ham and cheese on each fillet and roll into a cylindric shape. Hold it in place with toothpicks
- Mix together the flour, salt, and pepper in a flat dish. Dredge the folded veal in the flour, dip in the egg and coat with the breadcrumbs, ensuring an even coating all around
- Melt the butter in a large frying pan over medium heat and fry on all sides until golden brown and crisp
- Lower the heat and fry for another 3 to 4 minutes to ensure the veal cordon bleu is cooked through and the cheese has melted. Serve straight away. Enjoy!
