Pork Tonkatsu



Ingredients:
  • 4 slices pork loin or tenderloin, about 1/2 inch (1.5 cm) thick and 4-6 ounces (115-180g)
  • ground black pepper
  • salt
  • flour
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 2 cups fresh or dried bread crumbs
  • oil
  • cabbage, shredded
  • commercially prepared tonkatsu sauce, or a combination of the follwing mixed to taste:
    • ketchup
    • Worcestershire sauce
    • dark soy sauce
    • prepared mustard
    • sake

Procedure:

Slash the fat rim of one side of the loin cutlet to keep meat from curling when deep-fried.
Add some salt and then grind pepper over each sides.
Dredge lightly in flour.
Dip into beaten egg and then press into breadcrumbs.
To deep-fry: Bring about 3 inches (8 cm) of oil to about 350° F/175° C in a heavy-bottomed pot or deep-fryer.
Lay 1 or 2 cutlets in the hot oil.
Deep-fry till golden brown, about 5 to 7 minutes, turning them in the oil once or twice.
Skim the oil periodically.
Briefly drain cutlets on absorbent paper.
Cut pork crosswise at 3/4-inch (2cm) intervals into bite-sized slices that are easy to manage with chopsticks.
If you plan on eating tonkatsu with knife and fork, do not bother to cut it at this point.

Serve: Against a generous half-plateful of shredded cabbage, arrange cutlet slices as if cutlet was whole. Garnish with a wedge of lemon, if desired. The sauce may be poured from a small ewer into a small bowl to be used as a dip, or it may be poured over the cutlet and cabbage.
