Tonkatsu, or Japanese breaded, fried pork cutlets are delicious and easy to make. Get the cutlets ready and then some steamed rice started. Fry these up while the rice is cooking to have a delicious dish on the table in about a half hour.

For extra crispy tonkatsu, after you drain them and let them cool a bit, fry them a second time!

Here is the Japanese cookbook I mentioned in the video:
