Ingredients

Servings:4
  • Pork chop(600 g)
  • Salt(2 tsp)
  • Black pepper(½ tsp)
  • All-Purpose Flour(6 tbsp)
  • Eggs(2)
  • Panko(120 g)
  • Rapeseed Oil(120 ml)
  • Cabbage(300 g)
  • Mayonnaise(6 tbsp)
  • Rice Vinegar(1½ tbsp)
  • White sugar(1 tsp)
  • Bread(8 slices)
  • Ketchup(4 tbsp)
  • Worcestershire sauce(2 tbsp)
  • Dijon Mustard(1 tsp)
  • Potato(800 g)
  • Olive oil(2 tbsp)
  • Paprika(1 tsp)

Method

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 220°C. Cut {Potato} into thin fries, then toss with {Olive oil}, {Paprika}, and {Salt}. Spread out on a large tray.

    ~5 min

  2. 2

    Bake the fries for 25 minutes, turning once halfway, until golden at the edges and tender in the middle.

    ~25 min

  3. 3

    Finely shred {Cabbage}. In a bowl, mix {Mayonnaise}, {Rice Vinegar}, and {White sugar}, then toss through the cabbage and set aside.

    ~5 min

  4. 4

    Trim and lightly flatten {Pork chop} to even thickness. Season with {Salt} and {Black pepper}. Put {Flour}, beaten {Eggs}, and {Panko Breadcrumbs} into separate shallow bowls. Coat each pork chop in flour, then egg, then panko, pressing well so the crumbs stick.

    ~5 min

  5. 5

    In a small bowl, stir together {Ketchup}, {Worcestershire sauce}, {Mayonnaise}, and {Dijon Mustard} for the sandwich sauce.

  6. 6

    Heat {Vegetable oil} in a large frying pan over medium heat. Fry the breaded pork for 4–5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Transfer to a board and rest for 3 minutes.

    ~11 min

  7. 7

    Toast {Bread} lightly if you like. Spread sauce on the bread, add a mound of slaw, top with a whole katsu pork cutlet, and close each sandwich. Serve with the fries alongside.
