Slash the fat rimming one side of the loin cutlet to keep the meat from
curling when deepfried. Pound to flatten to about 1/4inch. Salt and pepper
both sides of each cutlet. Dredge each in flour, then dip into beaten eggs
and press into bread crumbs to coat both sides.
Heat a large skillet with about 1/2inch of oil until hot. Lay 1 or 2
cutlets in the hot oil. Deepfry until golden brown, about 5 to 7 minutes,
turning them once or twice. Drain the cutlets on paper towels and cut the
pork into bitesize strips that can be eaten with chopsticks.
Arrange the pork on a platter lined with the shredded cabbage, and garnish
with lemon wedges. Serve the sauce on the side for dipping, or pour it over
the pork and cabbage.
Yield: 4 servings
Variation: TURKEY TONKATSU Prepare the recipe for Pork Tonkatsu, using 4
turkey cutlets, each about 1/2inch thick, in place of the pork loin.
