- Then add each "steak" to seasoned flour,making sure to cover each side well.
- Heat oil over medium heat in skillet large enough to hold all the "steaks".
- Add "steaks" to hot but not smoking oil, cook until both sides are golden brown.
- Remove "steaks" and keep warm.
- To make gravy, drain all but 3 Tablespoons oil, add flour and stir into oil until a paste like texture is reached.
- Cook this mixture (roux) for about 5 minutes on medium heat to eliminate the raw flower taste, then warm the milk before adding to roux.
- Stir in milk a little at a time until desired thickness is reached, if you want it a little thinner add a bit of water.
