Terrific Tonkatsu (Japanese Pork Cutlet/Chops/Tenderloin)

"Tonkatsu is tasty, quick and easy to prepare, and fiercely popular... Think of this as the Japanese chicken nugget, only tastier! I like mine dipped in the delicious sauce and served over a simple white rice with crisp apple chunks folded in. A green alongside accompanies well for a full meal."

  1. The review is based solely on the sauce recipe. This was very good, but I doctored it up a little, trying to get to a taste I had in my mind. Added a little brown sugar, and some apple cider vinegar. Hubby loved it!
