How to Make Tonkatsu
Season the pork cutlets by sprinkling salt and ground black pepper on both sides.
Dredge each cutlet in cornstarch, giving them a light coat and shaking off any excess.
Dip the cutlets in the beaten egg, ensuring they are fully coated.
Coat the cutlets evenly with panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
Heat oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
Fry the cutlets in the hot oil for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
Drain on paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Serve with shredded cabbage and a drizzle of tonkatsu sauce.
