Veal scallops with yogurt

Veal scaloppini is a traditional preparation highly valued in various parts of the world, including Latin America, where they acquire different names and variants depending on the country. In some places, they are simply known as "veal Milanese" or "breaded steak," although the version that incorporates yogurt and apples adds a particular and sophisticated touch to the classic recipe. This combination arises from the fusion of European techniques with fresh ingredients typical of the region, resulting in a tender and creamy dish that enhances the delicate flavor of the veal.

In countries like Mexico, Argentina, and Colombia, scaloppini is usually served with side dishes such as mashed potatoes or salad, while the incorporation of yogurt provides a healthy and fresh nuance. The versatility of the dish means it is common to find variants with different types of accompaniments or sauces, although the use of yogurt in the cooking process helps maintain the meat's juiciness and provides a unique creamy texture.

How to prepare Veal Scaloppini with Yogurt

To begin, rub the veal cutlets with salt and pepper to taste to enhance their flavor.

Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet and cook the veal slices for approximately 2 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Then, place the veal in an oven-safe casserole dish, making sure to distribute the pieces well.

Next, add the cored and sliced apples over the scaloppini.

In a separate bowl, mix the evaporated milk with the yogurt until you get a homogeneous mixture.

Spread this mixture over the apples and meat, covering all the ingredients well.

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (approximately 160 degrees Celsius) and place the casserole dish inside.

Bake until the preparation is bubbling, which usually takes between 20 and 30 minutes.

Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors can fully meld.
