Due to the strong Austrian influence of the Austro-Hungarian era, "Wiener schnitzel" is popular in Hungary, known as "bécsi szelet" (Viennese slice), "borjú bécsi" (Viennese veal) or "rántott hús" (breaded meat). It is served in restaurants, and is a common meal in Hungarian homes, often prepared on Sundays or for festivities with "spätzle", French fries, mashed potatoes, or rice. Alternatively, green peas or other vegetables are used as a side dish. Bread and salad (or pickles) often accompany the meal. Some restaurants offer the "cordon bleu" variant, a slice of schnitzel rolled and filled with cheese and ham.
