Tonkatsu, a crispy Japanese delight

Tonkatsu, or Japanese breaded pork loin steak, is a delicious and crispy dish that brings an oriental atmosphere to your dining table. This classic Japanese dish is made by coating pork loin steaks in breadcrumbs and frying them until golden brown. It is served with a cabbage salad given an Asian twist with orange and sesame seeds, along with aromatic jasmine rice. This dish is a perfect choice for quick weekday meals as well as special dinners with friends.

Why choose tonkatsu?

Tonkatsu’s speciality lies in its unique flavour and texture. The crispy fried pork steaks and their melt-in-the-mouth centre make this dish irresistible. The freshness of the cabbage salad and the nutty flavour of the sesame seeds create the perfect balance with the steak. The dish is also dairy-free, making it suitable for many special diets. One serving contains plenty of protein and energy, making it a nutritious and filling choice.

Easy preparation tips for a successful result

To make preparation easier, you can prepare the cabbage salad in advance. If you would like to give the salad more flavour, try replacing regular oil with sesame oil. When coating the pork steaks, it is important to beat the egg thoroughly so that the coating adheres evenly. Fry the steaks in a hot pan to give them a beautiful golden-brown colour.

Tonkatsu – the best accompaniments and serving tips

Tonkatsu is best served hot, straight from the pan. Traditionally, you can arrange the portions on a plate alongside jasmine rice and cabbage salad. Refreshing drinks such as iced tea or lemon water pair well with the dish. It can be served either shared among the family or as individual portions on plates.
