Instructions to make Country Fried Steak:
  1. Fill frying pan with cooking oil enough so half of steak can be submerged into it. Put the pan on medium high heat
  2. In one bowl, crack eggs and scramble. Once done with that, put about two cups of flour in ziplock bag with your seasonings and mix together
  3. Each steak we are gonna dredge in egg mixture then drop n ziplock bag and shake for even coating.
  4. Once oil is hot enough (test by sprinkling flour into it and if sizzles it's ready) put steaks in. Season.
  5. Fry for about 5 minutes each side, after about 20 minutes should be a brown crunchy outer crust (I season halfway thru)
  6. While I cook steaks, I flip with my fork I flip, and clean out excess fat (I will use this grease for gravy)
  7. Once completely cooked through with no pink, I place on plate with napkin to soak some of grease and season (slightly grease soaks in)
  8. Once all steaks are done and on plate with napkin, pour grease out leaving about 1/2 cup of oil in frying pan and I spoon flour all over oil
  9. Stir until all flour and oil are combined and thickens together, do this off heat!! (if to much oil, you can add flour or dump in the trash bowl… Less is more in this case)
  10. Once stirred all together (whisk is great but fork will do), return to med high heat (needs to be hot).. Slowly mix and pour milk in at same time!.. I use about 2 1/2 cups
  11. Season and mix steadily over heat (this is a fast process here on out)
  12. Once you start seeing this its thickening… Turn heat off and keep stirring
  13. This is my desired consistency
  14. FYI if gravy gets too thick, add milk in and put back over heat. Stir constantly.. You can always trash some as well… Also if too thin ,add more flour slowly over heat as well
  15. Then you make your plate and top off with gravy!😋
  16. Great for mixing gravy!
