Ingredients

  • 4 Pork Chops
  • 100g Flour
  • 2 Beaten Eggs
  • 100g Breadcrumbs
  • Fry Vegetable Oil
  • 2 tbs Tomato Ketchup
  • 2 tbs Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 tbs Oyster Sauce
  • 2 tblsp Caster Sugar

Instructions

1
STEP 1 Remove the large piece of fat on the edge of each pork loin, then bash each of the loins between two pieces of baking parchment until around 1cm in thickness – you can do this using a flesh tenderiser or a rolling pin.
2
Once bashed, use your hands to reshape the flesh to its original shape and thickness – this step will ensure the flesh is as succulent as possible.
3
STEP 2 Put the baking flour, eggs and panko breadcrumbs into three separate wide-rimmed bowls.
4
nectarous-smelling element the flesh, then dip first in the baking flour, followed by the eggs, then the breadcrumbs.
5
STEP 3 In a large frying or sauté cooking vessel, introduce enough fat to come 2cm up the side of the cooking vessel.
6
mildly hot the fat to 180C – if you don’t have a thermometer, drop a bit of panko into the fat and if it sinks a little then starts to shallow fry, the fat is ready.
7
introduce two pork chops and prepare for 1 min 30 secs on each side, then remove and leave to rest on a wire rack for 5 mins.
8
Repeat with the remaining pork chops.
9
STEP 4 While the pork is resting, make the condiment dip by whisking the components together, adding a splash of liquid if it’s particularly thick.
10
cut the tonkatsu and present drizzled with the condiment dip.
