Instructions

  1. 1

    Score pork cutlets lightly and season with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Coat in flour, egg, then panko, and fry at 170C until golden.

  3. 3

    Slice fried cutlets into 2 cm strips and rest briefly to keep crispness.

  4. 4

    Simmer onion with tsuyu, water, and sugar for 3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Place cutlet in the pan and pour over 2 beaten eggs, cooking to soft-set.

Tips

Stop at soft-set eggs for the signature silky texture.
Do not soak cutlets too long in sauce or they lose crunch.
