Fried Veal Kidney

Remove the fat from several kidneys and cut them into rather thin slices; spray the slices with pepper and salt, plunge them into well-beaten egg and then into breadcrumbs and fry in a stewpan with a little butter until done. Put a mince of mushrooms in the center of a dish, place the slices of kidney around, cover over with a few tablespoonfuls of Colbert sauce, and serve.
