Japanese Crumbed Pork With Dipping Sauce Recipes

JAPANESE BREADED PORK CUTLET WITH SWEET TOMATO SOY SAUCE

Steps:

• For the sweet tomato soy sauce: Stir together the ketchup, soy sauce, Worcestershire and brown sugar in a small bowl and refrigerate until ready to use.
• For the pork cutlets: Put the flour in a wide, shallow bowl; the eggs in another; and the panko in a third.
• Poke the pork with a fork a few times to tenderize it, then sprinkle the pork with salt and pepper. Heat about 1/4 inch oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Meanwhile, working in batches, dredge the pork in flour. Shake off the excess and dip in the eggs, letting the excess drip off before coating in the panko. Fry in the oil, turning once, until golden brown on both sides and just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with the remaining pork.
• Serve the fried pork cutlets with the sweet tomato soy sauce.

JAPANESE CRUMBED PORK WITH DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Note: As stated above I made as part of an Asian night so I did not serve with cabbage.
• Pound pork gently with a meat mallet. Toss in flour, shake off excess.
• Dip pork in combined egg and water, then dip into panko flakes and coat each side.
• Soak cabbage in iced water for 5 minutes to crisp, drain.
• Heat enough oil to cover pork in a saucepan or deep fryer, add pork and cook, until golden brown each side, about 6-8 minutes, repeat with remaining pork steaks. Skim oil occasionally during cooking to remove any crumbs.
• Drain pork on absorbent paper and cut diagonally into 2 cm slices.
• To Serve: Place cabbage on a serving plate and arrange pork on top. Serve with lemon wedges, mustard and tonkatsu sauce.

PORK KATSU AND TONKATSU SAUCE (JAPANESE BREADED PORK AND DIPPING SAUCE) RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• Prepare sauce by whisking together all ingredients and refrigerating. Between two sheets of waxed paper beat pork cutlets as thin as possible with a meat mallet. Season cutlets with salt and pepper. Beat the egg in a low bowl. Coat the cutlets first in the flour, then the egg, and finally the panko crumbs. Over medium high heat pan fry pork for approx. 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and no longer pink inside. Serve warm with tonkatsu sauce for dipping.

TONKATSU - ASIAN-STYLE PORK CHOP

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together the eggs, milk, garlic, salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Place the panko crumbs in a shallow bowl.
• Rinse pork chops with water, then dip in the egg mixture. Coat with panko crumbs, dip in the egg mixture again, then coat with another layer of panko crumbs. Lay coated chops on a plate until the rest are finished. If you have time, let them set for about 10 minutes, and the coating will set very well. If you wish to freeze the chops, now is the time.
• When the oil is very hot, place pork chops into the pan, and fry for about 5 minutes on each side, until golden brown.

TONKATSU JAPANESE FRIED PORK

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Cut the edge of the pork chops in several places. Season with salt and pepper.
• Set up a breading station with 3 shallow dishes. Place flour in the first dish, lightly beaten egg in the second dish, and panko breadcrumbs in the third dish.
• Coat each pork chop generously with flour, shaking any excess off.
• Dip pork into beaten egg.
• Coat pork with panko breadcrumbs and set aside on a platter.
• In a deep pan, heat the canola oil to around 340 F as measured on a frying thermometer.
• Deep-fry breaded pork for 5 to 6 minutes.
• Turn pork over and fry about 5 more minutes or until cooked through and browned.
• Remove pork from oil and drain on paper towels.
• While pork is resting, finely shred green cabbage and soak in ice-cold water.
• Drain shredded cabbage well.
• Cut each tonkatsu lengthwise into small pieces and serve on plates with a side of the shredded cabbage. Drizzle some of the tonkatsu sauce over tonkatsu before eating. Serve karashi (hot Japanese mustard) on the side if you prefer. Enjoy.

JAPANESE-STYLE CRISPY PORK

Steps:

• Season the pork with salt. Mix the rice wine and 1 teaspoon ginger and spread on the pork. Stack the pork and set aside.
• Peel, quarter and seed the cucumbers; cut into 4-inch spears. Toss with the sugar and vinegar. Toast the pepper flakes with 1 tablespoon salt in a skillet over medium heat, about 4 minutes; set aside.
• Beat the eggs with 1/2 cup water in a shallow bowl. Put the panko and cornstarch in 2 separate shallow bowls. Dredge each piece of pork in cornstarch, dip in egg, then coat with panko. Heat 1/4 inch of peanut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the pork in batches until golden, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Drain on a paper-towel-lined plate.
• Sprinkle the cucumbers with some of the spiced salt. Mix the tonkatsu sauce and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon ginger in a bowl. Serve the pork with the cucumbers and sauce.

TONKATSU (JAPANESE-STYLE CRISPY FRIED PORK CUTLETS)

Steps:

• Place pork chops on a paper towel to absorb any excess moisture. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Whisk egg and soy sauce together in a small bowl.
• Place flour on a small plate and panko in another. Dredge a pork chop in the flour, pressing it in using your fingertips to cover all crevices along the surface. Turn to evenly coat all sides.
• Dip the pork into the egg mixture, coating completely. Transfer immediately to the bowl of panko, pressing in to evenly coat. Repeat process with the second pork chop.
• Heat oil in a wide pan or wok on medium-high heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lower a pork chop into the oil. Fry until bottom side is golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn; cook until other side turns golden and pork is slightly pink in the center, 2 to 3 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Pick up the cutlet and hold it on its side for a few seconds to let the oil drip off. Drain on a paper towel. Repeat with the second pork chop.
