Combine 1 cup milk        with the egg, whisk to mix. Pour into 9" round shallow pan. Season 1        cup flour with the garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Sift together        into a second 9" round shallow pan. Tenderize the round steak well,        trimming off excess fat and ligament. Dip the meat into the egg and        milk mixture, then dredge in the seasoned flour, pressing the flour        into the meat. Repeat for a crispier coating. When oil is hot, place        the meat into oil, adjusting temperature, to allow the meat to cook        for 9 to 12 minutes. This allows additional tenderizing of the meat.        When fried steak is golden brown, remove to drain on paper towels.        Serve with cream gravy.                Cream Gravy:                Pour off all but 4 tb of the cooking oil from the pan. Over medium        heat, slowly stir in the 1/4 cup flour, stirring constantly. Combine        the 1 cup milk and 1 cup water, slowly add to oil & flour mix,        stirring constantly. Stirring with a large spatula helps. Loosen        brown bits rom bottom of pan while stirring, there's great flavor        there.                Add salt and pepper to taste, raising heat to bring to a boil. When        bubbly, lower heat and continue to stir, simmering for 5 minutes.                It's traditional to serve the meat with mashed potatoes, covering the        meat and potatoes with the gravy. Large yeast rolls go great with        this meal too. Well worth the effort!                Recipe by Jeff Duke               MMMMM       --- SBBSecho 3.23-Win32        * Origin: The Fool's Quarter, fqbbs.synchro.net (1:105/500)       SEEN-BY: 18/200 105/7 10 11 44 45 81 500 106/201 128/187 129/14 305       SEEN-BY: 153/7715 154/110 218/700 226/30 227/114 229/110 206 300 307       SEEN-BY: 229/317 400 426 428 452 470 664 700 705 266/512 291/111 292/854       SEEN-BY: 320/219 322/757 342/200 460/58 633/280 712/848 902/26 5020/400       SEEN-BY: 5075/35       PATH: 105/500 81 229/426           |
