Recipes Main Courses Quick Meals
The secret of Tonkatsu lies in the structure of panko crumbs: since these are splintered bread pieces, they don't soak up oil during frying, so the coating remains incredibly crispy while the meat steams inside its own steam.

Instructions

1 ✓

Pound the meat, salt and pepper. Dredge in flour, beaten egg, then press into panko.

Tip: Flour sticks to meat, egg to flour, panko to egg. If you skip the flour, the egg slides off the wet meat.
2 ✓

Heat the oil to 170°C. Fry the meat until golden brown (approx. 3-4 mins per side).

Tip: If the oil is too cold, the crumbs soak it up. If too hot, it burns before the meat cooks.
3 ✓

Remove and rest on a wire rack.

Tip: Never put on kitchen paper! Paper holds steam, making the bottom of the coating 'sweat' and soft. The rack ventilates.
4 ✓

Cut the vegetables into strips, and flash fry in a wok with sesame oil and soy sauce.

Tip: Vegetables should remain crunchy (al dente).
5 ✓

Slice the meat into strips, drizzle with Tonkatsu sauce, and serve with the vegetables.

Recipe FAQ

Why did the coating peel off?
If the meat was wet before breading, the steam generated pushes the coating off. Always wipe the meat dry!
