Preparation method for schnitzels baked in the oven
If you have all the above ingredients ready, it’s time to start the preparation and the actual baking. Don’t be afraid, it’s not difficult at all — even a beginner cook can prepare these schnitzels. Run the beef and pork through a meat grinder. If you don’t feel like grinding, you can buy already ground meat in the same quantities as listed above. Add the finely chopped onion to the ground meat. Now grate both potatoes finely using a grater. Add the grated potatoes, pepper, salt, eggs and the pressed garlic to the ground meat. Mix the mixture thoroughly.
Next, dip the slices of bread into the milk and let them soak for 5 minutes, then blend the slices in the milk. Add this bread mash to the minced meat mixture and put it to rest in the refrigerator for one hour.
After one hour take the mixture out; it should be suitably firm so that you can easily shape the schnitzels. Shape them and place them with spacing next to each other on a greased baking tray. Bake for about 40 minutes in a preheated oven at 180° C. Now just pour over the schnitzels the sauce you make by mixing sour cream, pressed garlic and a little water. You can season it again to your taste. Bake in the oven with the sauce as well.
