1.For tomato, potato and oregano salad, cook potatoes in boiling salted water until tender (20-25 minutes). Drain and set aside to cool, then peel, coarsely chop and place in a large bowl. Just before serving, add remaining ingredients, season to taste and toss to combine.

2.Combine breadcrumbs, parmesan, parsley and garlic in a bowl, season to taste and toss to combine. Place egg in a separate bowl. Dip beef, in batches, into egg, shake off excess, then dip into breadcrumbs and press lightly. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat and shallow-fry beef in batches, turning occasionally, until golden (5-6 minutes). Drain on absorbent paper and season to taste. Serve hot with lemon wedges and tomato, potato and oregano salad.
