My husband loves fried food, so I attempted so many different techniques to get the best tonkatsu possible. This is now the staple recipe for my family.

Adding oil to the beaten egg is a trick that prevents the coating from falling off the meat. Also, dipping the meat into the coating twice helps to lock in the juices and makes the panko extra crispy. Recipe by Acchan

1

Beat the eggs and mix them with the vegetable oil.

Pound the pork loin to tenderize and set aside. If you don't have a meat pounder, you can use the back of a knife.
3

Season the meat with salt and pepper, then lightly coat with flour.
4

Dip in the beaten egg and evenly coat with panko. Dip the pork loin in the beaten egg once again, then coat with panko a second time.
5

Deep fry in hot oil (at about 350°F/180°C) until golden.
