"Tonkatsu" is a Japanese dish made from pork that is cut into thick slices, coated with flour, egg, and breadcrumbs, then deep-fried until crispy. The term "Ton" translates to pork, and "katsu" comes from the word "cutlet," which means breaded and deep-fried. Tonkatsu is typically served with a sweet and tangy sauce called "Tonkatsu sauce" and often accompanied by finely shredded cabbage. It is commonly served as a set meal with rice and miso soup.
