Method
Pork Katsu Preparation
Prepare the Pork
Start by seasoning the pork loin pieces with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Set Up Breading Station
In three separate bowls, place the all-purpose flour, beaten eggs, and panko breadcrumbs.
Bread the Pork
Dredge each pork piece in the flour, shaking off any excess, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with panko breadcrumbs, pressing lightly to adhere.
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet or frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Cook the Pork Katsu
Carefully add the breaded pork pieces to the hot oil, cooking for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.
Tonkatsu Sauce Preparation
Mix Sauce Ingredients
In a small bowl, combine ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, sugar, and Dijon mustard. Stir well until the sugar is dissolved.
Serve
Slice the cooked pork katsu and serve with the tonkatsu sauce drizzled on top or on the side for dipping.
