Method
Pound the beef steak using a meat tenderizer tool until flattened and almost double in area. Cut it into 4 pieces.
Place the flour in a large bowl and season it with salt, black pepper and cayenne pepper to taste. Stir well to combine evenly.
Mix the eggs together with the milk in another large bowl.
Take a piece of beef fillet and coat it on all sides with the flour. Dip it into the egg and milk mixture, then dip it back into the flour again. Set aside and do the same for the remaining beef steaks.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or skillet (use enough vegetable oil to cover the bottom of the pan). When the oil is hot enough, add the steak (add as many steaks as it takes, as long as there is space between the steaks). Fry the steaks for 3 to 4 minutes, then turn them over and fry for 5 minutes more. Remove from the pan and place on paper towels to absorb excess oil. Keep the juices in the pan to make the gravy.
To make the gravy, pour the cream into the pan together the butter and flour. Mix well until the flour dissolves, season with salt and pepper to taste and cook stirring and scraping the bottom of the pan over medium heat until the gravy is thick enough.
Serve with mashed potatoes topped with the gravy and steamed vegetables.
