A nostalgic, classic Gisa Restaurant-style king tonkatsu made by flattening pork loin and coating it with a crispy bread crumb crust before frying to perfection.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • When pounding the meat, strike diagonally outward rather than vertically from above to prevent tearing and achieve better stretching.
  • If the oil temperature is too high, the outer bread crumbs will burn while the inside remains undercooked—maintain medium heat and adjust as needed.
  • When slicing cabbage thinly is difficult, use a potato peeler to achieve thin, restaurant-style shreds.
  • To keep the tonkatsu extra crispy, consider dipping the sauce separately instead of pouring it directly on the dish.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy a generous, crispy Western-style tonkatsu at home affordably.
  • People looking to relieve stress by enjoying the satisfying act of pounding meat while cooking.
