I love eating crumbed food. This ranges from schnitzel, to crumbed fish or even something like chicken nuggets. But the unfortunate thing about not being able to eat wheat is that all these things go out the window, however you can make your own crumb. Sure it's not as convenient but it sure is worth the effort.
There are three basic ingredients in the perfect crumb. These are corn crumbs, egg and gluten free flour. For corn crumbs you can actually buy them in the supermarket or if you can't find them simply get a box of cornflakes and stick them in the blender. I have also done this without egg before using orgran no egg.
The process for crumbing is quite simple. Using three bowls place the flour in one, whisked egg in another and the corn crumbs in the final bowl. Place the meat in the flour first, then the egg and then the corn crumbs and your done. You can also season as desired. I usually add to the flour salt, pepper, and herbs. Lemon or lime juice is also nice. You can then cook your meat as desired, I usually shallow fry or bake in the oven.
Enjoy!
