Tonkatsu

My husband and I miss Japan very much. Lucky for us we have friends who live there and they send us things that we miss. We love the curry chain CoCo Curry. If you are ever in Japan you need to try them! They also have a restaurant chain all around the world. Our friends sent us some CoCo Curry instant curry that you can purchase in the restaurant. I paired it with some Tonkatsu (Panko Breaded Pork Cutlet). You can also eat Tonkatsu with a special sauce they make for it which is a Japanese Worcestershire Sauce. We like the Bulldog Brand the best.

Ingredients:

Pork Cutlets (1/4 inch in thickness)
Egg
Flour
Garlic Powder
Onion Power
Salt & Pepper
Panko Bread Crumbs
Vegetable or Canola Oil

Directions:

1. Trip fat off the the pork cutlets and season them on both sides with salt, pepper, onion & garlic powder.
2. Start heating your oil.
3. Put your flour, beaten egg, and panko in separate dishes. Season flour and egg with salt, pepper, garlic & onion powder.
4. With each piece of pork, dip it first in flour (shake off the excess), egg, then panko.
5. Fry each piece until golden brown and place on a paper towel to soak up any excess oil.
6. Top with Tonkatsu sauce or eat with curry.

Enjoy!
