Ingredients

  • 12.0 oz (340 g) pork loin cutlets, 1/2-inch thick
  • 2.1 oz (60 g) panko breadcrumbs
  • 0.7 oz (20 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1.8 oz (50 g) beaten egg
  • 3.1 tsp (14 g) neutral oil
  • 8.8 oz (250 g) cabbage, shredded
  • 6.0 tsp (30 g) tomato ketchup
  • 0.3 US fl oz (10 ml) light soy sauce
  • 0.3 US fl oz (10 ml) rice vinegar
  • 1.0 tsp (4 g) sugar
  • 0.2 tsp (1 g) salt

Method

  1. Heat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss panko with oil in a skillet and toast over medium heat for 3–4 minutes until pale golden.
  2. Season pork with salt. Coat in flour, then egg, then toasted panko. Set on a wire rack over a baking sheet.
  3. Bake for 18–25 minutes, depending on thickness, until pork reaches 145°F (63°C). Rest for at least 3 minutes.
  4. Mix ketchup, soy sauce, vinegar and sugar for the dipping sauce. Slice the rested cutlets and serve with cabbage and sauce.

Cook’s note: Baking is a home adaptation of the usual deep-fried cutlet. Use a thermometer rather than relying on crust color.
