what is milanesa
The milanesa (in Italian  cotoletta alla milanese ) is a dish common in Latin American countries where generic types of breaded meat fillet preparations are known as a milanesa.n the Philippines, milanesa is known as carne frita, and is cooked in much the same way as described above (meat pounded until thin, flour, egg, breadcrumbs, fried).
