Tonkatsu (Japanese Pork Cutlet) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 boneless pork chops, 1/2 inch thick (I have also used boneless chicken breasts)
    2 tablespoons flour
    1 beaten egg
    1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs (Japanese bread crumbs)
    vegetable oil (for frying)
Preparation
    Pound pork to 1/4-inch thickness.
    Coat with flour, then dip into egg, and finally coat thoroughly with Panko.
    Deep fry in 1 inch vegetable oil, heated to 350\u00b0, 3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
    Serve on bed of shredded cabbage, for presentation.
    Serve with Tonkatsu sauce.
    NOTE: If you can't find Panko, you may use crushed corn flakes.
