I know it’s plain but I was never able to cook schnitzel right as a kid and I’m just proud of it and my homemade fries, even if they aren’t golden brown 👉👈

Use more oil, let them half drown in hot oil and turn them more often, slightly less heat.

Those fries are too undercoocked.

Good job for a first time!

for frying the schnitzel you can pour more oil and let it get warm and then put your shnitzel and what I do is I try to move it around in a circular motion to form some ridges and check if it’s golden brown I’ll fry the other side and I try to do all of that in medium heat.

your fries can be cooked a bit more and I suggest after you take them out of the oil season them with anything that you like. (my favorite seasoning mixture is grounded black pepper+salt+garlic powder+parmigiano cheese)

nevertheless I am proud of your cooking too; keep it up 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

The schnitzel is overcooked. Less temperature for your pan and turn it more often.

The fries are undercooked. Slightly more temperature for the oil. Try double frying.

Use oil AND butter! And there are some numbers on the stove between 0 and 9… So it is not a steak, just show it some love on medium-high temperature.

Elaborate what about it makes you proud.

Because, how can i put it?: what i'm seeing here is the antithesis of a cooks pride.
