The mashed potatoes are time consuming, tiring, and so texturally awesome that they ruin every other type of mashed potatoes. I hate that I learned how to make them because now I have to make them this way every time.

    I kept it off the schnitzel and included the lemon, but I knew there would be someone authentic enough to call me out on that gaffe. :)

    Next time I do it I’ll go with a nice tangy potato salad instead of the puree.

      Jaegerschnitzel has mushroom gravy, so it’s not like there isn’t precedent for it.

        And if you are in the wrong region it’s a breaded sausage with noodles and ketchup. Everything is a schnitzel if you want it to be.

      Yes, a potato salad is the best side dish for Schnitzel. And a nice cranberry jam.
