Milanesa

In the menu for Today:

Milanesa Napolitana- Argentina

Milanesa Napolitana is a variation on the breaded fried steak called milanesa that is popular in Argentina and Uruguay. Milanesa a la Napolitana does not originate from Milan or Naples - it's thought to have been invented in the 1940's at a Buenos Aires restaurant called “NĂ¡poli”.

Milanesa napolitana is similar to veal parmesan, but with South American touches - after the steak is breaded and fried, it's topped with a slice of ham, tomato sauce, and melted mozzarella cheese, and served with french fries. Leftovers make great sandwiches, especially when paired with a soft but crusty roll.
