Pork Katsudon




In Japan, it’s tradition for students to eat Katsu before an exam, because “katsu” is a homonym to their word for “victory?”

Ingredients:
300g (4 pcs) pork chops, skin removed
3 Tbsp all-purpose flour
1 pc egg, beaten
1/2 cup Japanese breadcrumbs
1 stalk parsley, snipped
4 cups hot rice
1 pc small white onion, sliced and sautéed (optional)

Sauce :
3-1/2 Tbsp sugar
1 pc large white onion, sliced
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup meat broth
2 Tbsp Sprite
3 pcs eggs, lightly beaten

PROCEDURE:

1. Make slits around edges of pork chops. Pound to slightly flatten. Season with ¼ tsp fine salt and ¼ tsp pepper.
2. Pat each slice of pork in flour then dip in egg. Coat with breadcrumbs.
3. Fry until just brown on both sides. Set aside.
4. Combine sauce ingredients. Cover and simmer for 2 minutes. Add fried pork, then spread eggs on top of pork (do not stir). Cover and simmer for 3 minutes.
5. Pour over hot rice on a bowl. Top with parsley. If desired, top with sautéed onions.
