Katsu-don (Pork Cutlet Donburi)

DIRECTIONS

• Heat vegetable oil 1-inch deep in frying pan or wok to 340F or until a few breadcrumbs dropped into the middle of the oil surface immediately.
• Trim off fat from the pork and pound it to make it thin.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Dust first with flour, then dip into the beaten egg, then the panko crumbs.
• Fry in the oil until light brown--about 4 minutes/side.
• Drain on paper towels and then cut into 1" strips.
• Mix the broth ingredients together in a bowl.
• Then heat 1/4 of the broth in a separate skillet, bringing it just to a boil.
• Add the slices of 1 pork cutlet and cook one minute.
• When the broth has fully coated the cutlet, pour one portion of the beaten eggs into the skillet and stir.
• Add 2 Tbsp. green peas and cook 30 seconds more.
• Place one serving of rice into a deep bowl, then remove the cutlet and egg mixture from the skillet and place over the rice.
• Repeat this for the remaining servings.
