Description
A warm and savory Japanese comfort food featuring crispy pork cutlets, fluffy eggs, and steamed rice topped with a flavorful dashi broth.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pork cutlets
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 2 cups cooked rice
- 1 onion, sliced
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons mirin
- 4 cups dashi broth
- Vegetable oil for frying
- Optional: pickled ginger, scallions for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare a breading station with flour, beaten eggs, and Panko breadcrumbs.
- Pound the pork cutlets to tenderize, then coat each cutlet in flour, dip in eggs, and press into Panko.
- Heat oil in a pan to 350°F and fry the cutlets until golden brown and cooked through.
- In a separate pot, sauté onions until translucent, then add dashi broth, soy sauce, and mirin.
- Simmer the sauce before adding the fried cutlets and beaten eggs to create a creamy topping.
- Serve the cutlets over a bed of cooked rice and drizzle with the sauce. Garnish with pickled ginger and scallions if desired.
Notes
For the best texture, avoid using regular breadcrumbs; Panko is essential for a crispy coating.
