Tonkatsu: Japanese Pork Loin!!

[taxlady]

They were just over 1/2" thick and I pounded them to just under 1/2".

Breading: Dip in flour, egg, back into flour, egg then Panko. The double flour and egg gives a nice thick breading but it is messy so place it in the fridge or freezer to set the breading.
Fry at a low temp (235-245 F) until dark brown on both sides.

Sauce:
½ cup ketchup
2 tablespoons soy sauce.
¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon apple sauce
½ tablespoon spicy mustard
1 teaspoon minced garlic
Pinch of black pepper
1 or 2 tablespoons Ginger juice
Juice of half a lemon
2 tablespoons of brown sugar
Boil for 2 minuets

Thank you. I have never seen ginger juice. Could I use grated ginger instead? I'll have to try it without the soy sauce, because I'm not supposed to eat soy. Sounds tasty.

For ginger juice I grate then squeeze ginger. But you could just use the ginger.

Leave out the soy but taste for salt.
