Before Niigata's Tare Katsu Don became known nationwide, this sauce was served at a well-loved restaurant in Furumachi. This recipe is based on memories from about 40 years ago, recreated after much trial and error to capture that original flavor.

Steps

1

Prepare the cutlets as you like. For best results, slice pork tenderloin into 1/2-inch (about 1 cm) thick pieces and pound them. Use fine breadcrumbs for coating.
2

Combine all the sauce ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil just long enough to cook off the alcohol.
3

Drizzle a little of the finished sauce over rice, then place the cutlets coated with sauce on top.
