KATSU-DON (PORK CUTLET DONBURI)

Steps:

• 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.

KATSUDON (JAPANESE DISH)

Steps:

• Marinate pork chop with kumquats, soy sauce, pepper and onion for at least 30minutes --.
• Place flour, beaten eggs and panko on separate shallow dishes. Then, dip the marinated cutlets first in flour, then egg, then panko.
• Heat oil until it's really hot and ready for frying. Fry each side of the meat until golden brown, drain.
• Cut meat in 3/4 inch strips but make sure each shape is still intact. To make it easier, slice until before the skin so it would still hold it's shape.
• For the stock: Mix and simmer all stock ingredients in a wok stirring occasionally.
• After 10 mins of simmering, increase the flame a bit and slide each cutlet using a spatula into the boiling stock keeping the shape intact and immediately pour beaten egg over it cooking until the egg is nearly set. Key is not to overcook the eggs and don't cook too long or tonkatsu(the fried meat with breading) will lose it's crispiness. Remove intact meat with egg and slide on top of a big bowl of steamed rice. Do this with the rest of the cutlets.
• Garnish with chopped green onions.
• Dish is served. Enjoy!

JAPANESE KATSUDON

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a pan, fry the sliced onion until golden brown, then add the tonkatsu (see recipe here), placing it in the middle of the pan. Mix the dashi, soy, mirin and sugar together and tip three-quarters of the mixture around the tonkatsu. Sizzle for a couple of mins so the sauce thickens a little and the tonkatsu reheats.
• Tip the beaten eggs around the tonkatsu and cook for 2-3 mins until the egg is cooked through but still a little runny. Divide the rice between two bowls, then top each with half the egg and tonkatsu mix, sprinkle over the chives and serve immediately, drizzling with a little more soy if you want an extra umami kick.

KATSUDON (PORK-CUTLET RICE BOWL)

Steps:

• To make the dashi, bring the water and kombu up to a simmer, then turn off the heat. Fish out the kombu, then add the bonito, and allow to steep for 2 or 3 minutes. Skim off any scum on the surface, and pour through a fine-mesh strainer. Keep in the fridge.
• To make the cutlets, put the flour, egg and panko in three separate wide bowls. Generously season each cutlet with salt and pepper on both sides. Dip them, one at a time, in the flour, then the egg, then the panko, making sure each cutlet is totally covered in crumbs. Pour vegetable oil into a large, wide skillet until it's just under an inch high, and set over medium-high heat until it reaches 350 degrees. Fry cutlets until golden brown and crisp, turning after 3 minutes, and frying for a total of 6 minutes. Set on a wire rack to cool, then slice into 1/4 inch thick pieces.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, add 2/3 cup dashi, soy sauce, mirin, onion, ginger and peas, if using. Bring to a simmer, then turn the heat down to low and cook for about 5 minutes, until the onion has softened. Carefully place the sliced cutlets on top of the onion and broth. Cover, and cook for 3 more minutes.
• Crack eggs into a small bowl, and beat them with a fork, then pour all along the top of the cutlets. Don't stir, just cover and cook until the eggs are just about set but still slightly wobbly. To serve, heap rice into bowls, then slide cutlet slices, eggs and broth on top of each. Sprinkle with scallions.
