Step 1
Cook the 1 cup brown rice in 2 cups water with a pinch of salt until tender, about 30 minutes. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
Step 2
Pound the 4 beef cutlets to 1/4-inch thickness. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Beat the 2 eggs in a shallow dish. Place the 1 cup breadcrumbs in another dish. Dip each cutlet in egg, then coat with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
Step 4
Heat the 3 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the cutlets in a single layer until golden brown and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Do not crowd the pan; cook in batches if needed.
Step 5
While the cutlets cook, shred the 2 cups cabbage and 2 cups lettuce, and slice the 1 tomato. Toss together in a bowl with a splash of oil and vinegar if you like.
Step 6
Serve each cutlet with a portion of rice and salad on the side.
