Instructions
- Cut two slits about 2 inches apart through the fat and connective tissue on each of the pork chops. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- In wide heavy bottomed skillet over medium heat, heat about 2-inches deep of oil to about 350 F.
- Place flour in one plate, the bread crumbs in another plate, and the beaten eggs in a bowl. Lightly dredge pork chop in flour, dip in eggs and then roll in bread crumbs, patting down crumbs to fully coat. Repeat with remaining pork chops.
- Add pork chops into hot oil and deep-fry, turning as needed, for about 8 to 10 minutes or until breading is golden and pork is cooked through.
- Remove from pan and drain on a wire rack set over a baking sheet. Let rest for about 2 to 3 minutes before slicing.
- Serve with a generous heap of shredded cabbage and a side of tonkatsu sauce.
Notes
- Make a few slits about 2 inches apart through the fat and connective tissue on each of the pork chops to prevent them from curling during frying.
- For the best results, maintain the deep-frying temperature at an optimal range of 350 F to 375 F.
- Clean the oil and remove any crumbs between batches to keep the crust from darkening.
