Katsudon - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1/2 lb pork cutlets or 1/2 lb chicken cutlet
    1 1/2 cups basmati rice
    2 onions, sliced
    2 cups chicken broth
    1/2 cup mirin
    1/2 cup soy sauce
    2 tablespoons sugar
    4 slices ginger
    6 eggs, beaten
    1/4 cup flour
    1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
    1/2 teaspoon pepper, to taste
    2 -3 cups panko breadcrumbs
    1/4 cup oil
    chopped scallion (to garnish)
Preparation
    Prepare rice, set aside to keep warm.
    Simmer onions, broth, mirin, soy, and seasonings in a large pan over low heat for 15 minutes.
    Meanwhile beat the eggs in a large bowl.
    Mix flour, salt and pepper in a plate and pour panko in another plate.
    Dredge pork in flour, dip into eggs, dip into panko--- then dip into eggs again and back into panko. Double dipping insures a nice crust.
    Cook in oil until browned on both sides, drain on paper towels.
    Dip cutlets into broth, warm for 1 minute, slice and serve over rice, ladle onion broth over, sprinkle with scallions.
