1/2 Teaspoon Paprika

In a small bowl combine the salt, pepper, paprika, onion and garlic powder. Mix well. In another bowl mix the eggs and milk.  In a skillet heat your oil but watch and don't let get to hot. Coat the steaks in the flour mixture then in the egg mixture and then again back in the flour mixture. Let fry for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the way you like them. If cooked to long they will get tough.
Take out of skillet and put on a plate. Make up the gravy and put in the skillet to thicken then put the steaks back in, cover and cook a few minutes more so the gravy can also season the steaks.

CORNED BEEF SANDWICHES

Corned beef
Coleslaw
Sour Dough or Rye
Swiss Cheese
Place 1-2 slices of swiss cheese on 1 slice of your bread. Add the corned beef and some coleslaw on it. Toast or make like a grill cheese. Can also use as a penni. Serve with dill pickles and chips. I love Walmart's deli Corn Beef.

I love to also put coleslaw on my bbq sandwiches. Most people think this is terrible but it is so good.

COOKIE CUTTING TIP

If you love making cookies and roll them out if you put the dough between 2 pieces of parchment paper when rolling them out they will not stick. You will not have to use extra flour for rolling and the cookies will not be tough or dry. If you will freeze them before baking it will let them rise higher. They will also keep their shapes and want spread. Keep in freezer for around 10 minutes.
