An easy and budget-friendly recipe that transforms pork shoulder into a tonkatsu-style dish. Coating it with flour before frying makes it tender and moist, allowing the special sauce to cling perfectly. The hearty flavor is perfect for rice and makes a great appetizer or main course.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Pork Shoulder 250g
  • Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) 1 tbsp
  • All-purpose Flour 2 tsp
  • Onion 1/2 pc
  • Garlic 1 clove
  • Vegetable Oil 2 tsp

Seasonings

  • [A] Mirin (Sweet Rice Wine) 1 tbsp
  • [A] Soy Sauce 1 tbsp
  • [A] Worcestershire Sauce 1 tbsp
  • [A] Sugar 2 tsp
  • [A] Ketchup 2 tsp

Steps

  1. Peel and thinly slice 1/2 pc onion.
  2. Peel and thinly slice 1 clove garlic.
  3. In a bowl, combine 1 tbsp Mirin (Sweet Rice Wine), 1 tbsp Soy Sauce, 1 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce, 2 tsp Sugar, and 2 tsp Ketchup. Mix well.
  4. Add 1 tbsp Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) to 250g Pork Shoulder and rub it in well. If the meat pieces are large, tear them into bite-sized pieces or cut with scissors.
  5. Sprinkle 2 tsp All-purpose Flour over the pork shoulder and coat evenly.
  6. Heat 2 tsp Vegetable Oil and sliced garlic in a frying pan over medium heat.
  7. Once the garlic is fragrant and slightly browned, remove it from the pan.
  8. In the same frying pan, arrange the floured pork shoulder and cook over medium heat.
  9. Once the pork shoulder has changed color to some extent, add the thinly sliced onion and stir-fry until the onion becomes translucent.
  10. When the onion has softened, stir the sugar at the bottom of the prepared sauce mixture and pour it into the frying pan.
  11. Increase heat to medium-high and thicken the sauce, coating the ingredients. Be careful not to over-reduce the sauce as it can easily burn due to the flour. Watch carefully.
  12. Once the pork is cooked through and coated with the sauce, transfer to a plate. Garnish with the reserved garlic.
  13. Serve with plenty of vegetables as a side dish, or place over rice to make a rice bowl.
