pork loin

🥗Healthier: chicken breast

💰Cheaper: pork shoulder

Chicken breast is leaner, while pork shoulder is more economical.

Japanese mayonnaise

🥗Healthier: regular mayonnaise

💰Cheaper: store-brand mayonnaise

Regular mayonnaise is widely available and often less expensive.

white bread

🥗Healthier: whole grain bread

💰Cheaper: generic sandwich bread

Whole grain offers more fiber, while generic bread is budget-friendly.

tonkatsu sauce

🥗Healthier: bbq sauce

💰Cheaper: homemade sauce

1

Prepare the pork loin by trimming excess fat and pounding to an even thickness.

2

Season the pork with salt and pepper on both sides.

3

Dredge the pork in flour, ensuring it's fully coated.

4

Dip the floured pork into beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off.

5

Coat the pork in panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

6

Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

7

Fry the pork until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

8

Remove the pork and drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.

9

Slice the pork into strips once cooled slightly.

10

Spread Japanese mayonnaise on one side of each slice of bread.

11

Layer shredded cabbage on one slice of bread, followed by the pork slices.

12

Drizzle tonkatsu sauce over the pork, then top with the second slice of bread.

13

Press down gently and slice the sandwich in half before serving.
