There are two version of cotoletta alla milanese: cotoletta and orecchia
d'elefante (elephant's ear). The first one is the traditional one, with its
bone and no flattening. The second gets its name from the shape it assumes
during cooking, since there's not a bone to keep it flat, and this second
one gets flattened.
Many elders from Milan think the elephant ear is just a *******ization of
the real one which is the bone-in, non-flattened cotoletta.
