Yager Schnitzel is prepared the same as the Wiener Schnitzel except it is pork cutlets. This is the "Poor Man's Schnitzel" in Germany.

I lived in Vienna for many years, and most folks made schnizel with pork cutlets (thin like scallopini). I don't know what they did in Germany, but in Vienna it was served with many different salads, definitely NOT ketchup and french fries! I make them with chicken cutlets and they are delicious!

When leaving a party you say "auf wieder sehen" not "auf wiener schnitzel".
