A delicious and comforting Japanese Katsu Bowl made with crispy cutlets and served with tangy tonkatsu sauce, perfect for quick weeknight dinners.


Ingredients

Scale
  • Boneless pork cutlets
  • Salt and pepper
  • All-purpose flour
  • 1 large egg
  • Panko breadcrumbs
  • Oil for frying
  • Cooked rice
  • Tonkatsu sauce
  • Green onions for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cook your rice according to the package instructions, which usually takes about 15-20 minutes.
  2. Season your pork cutlets with salt and pepper on both sides.
  3. Prepare the dredging station with flour, beaten egg, and panko breadcrumbs.
  4. Heat about 1/4 inch of oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.
  5. Fry the cutlets for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Drain the cutlets on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.
  7. Slice the cutlets into strips and serve them over a bed of rice, drizzled with tonkatsu sauce and garnished with green onions.

Notes

Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. For best results, store cutlets and rice separately to keep them crispy.
