Pork Tonkatsu
Ингредиенты
- 8 slices white sandwich bread, crust removed and broken into pieces
- 4 boneless pork chops, about 3/4-inch (2-cm) thick (see note)
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) cake flour
- 3 eggs, lightly beaten
- Canola oil, for frying
- Tonkatsu sauce, to taste
- Salt and pepper
Инструкция
- In a food processor, crumble bread, pulsing a few seconds at a time. Set aside in a bowl.
- On a work surface, lightly flatten each pork chop with a meat tenderizer. With a fork, prick meat several times on each side and cut through fat around chop a few times to prevent the slice from curving while cooking. Set aside on a plate. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place flour in a shallow bowl and eggs in a second bowl.
- Preheat oil in the deep fryer to 180 °C (350 °F). Line a baking sheet with paper towel.
- Dredge chops in flour and shake to remove any excess. Dip in beaten eggs and let drain. Press into breadcrumbs to coat well. Set aside.
- Fry 2 slices at a time in oil for about 4 minutes or until meat is cooked. Drain on the baking sheet. Cut into 2.5-cm (1-inch) thick slices. Serve immediately and drizzle meat with tonkatsu sauce. Serve with rice and thinly sliced green cabbage.
