Julienne 1 red radish for garnish. Set aside.

Heat vegetable oil to 170°C in a deep fryer or frying pan. Once the oil reaches temperature, fry the v2schnitzel for about 8-10 minutes.

10

Heat a separate frying pan to 170°C to cook the corn tortillas. There is no need for any oil! Heat until cooked through.
