JapaneseJPmain
30 min
medium
4 servings
Servings4
2 cups panko (Japanese breadcrumbs) (120 g)
kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper
3 ½ cups neutral flavor oil (vegetable, canola, etc) (enough for 10-inch cast iron skillet)
9 quail eggs
6 asparagus
½ onion
1 bunch garlic chives (about 20 stalks)
½ cup sushi ginger
2 sausages
1 piece pork loin chop
½ chicken breast (butterfly one breast but only use half)
4 slices pork belly
1 large egg
1 cup all-purpose flour
¾ to 1 cup water (180 to 240 ml)
4 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce (usuta sauce)
2 Tbsp ketchup
2 Tbsp water
2 tsp soy sauce
2 tsp sugar
1

Prepare the Kushikatsu sauce by mixing Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, water, soy sauce, and sugar in a bowl.

2

In a separate bowl, prepare the batter by whisking together the egg, flour, and water until smooth.

3

Skewer the quail eggs, asparagus, onion, garlic chives, sushi ginger, sausages, pork loin chop, chicken breast, and pork belly onto skewers.

4

Season the skewered ingredients with kosher salt and black pepper.

5

Dip each skewer into the batter, allowing excess to drip off.

6

Coat the batter-covered skewers in panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

7

Heat the oil in a 10-inch cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until hot.

8

Carefully add the skewers to the hot oil, frying in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.

9

Remove the skewers from the oil and drain on paper towels.

10

Serve hot with the Kushikatsu sauce for dipping.
