1 1/2 cups japanese breadcrumbs (panko)

How to Make Tonkatsu Sandwich

Season both sides of pork with salt and pepper. Dredge meat in breadcrumbs.

Fill a large frying pan with vegetable oil until ½ inch deep; heat to 320ºF. Fry fillets over medium heat until golden brown, about 1 minute per side. Drain on a wire rack or pat with paper towels to remove excess oil.

Spread Japanese mayonnaise on one side of each slice of bread. Top mayonnaise with pork fillet and top with another bread slice, mayonnaise side down. Slice each sandwich into 4 pieces and serve immediately.
