How To Make Tonkatsu Japanese Fried Pork Chops Recipe :

1
 
In a medium bowl, combine eggs, milk, garlic, salt, and pepper. Heat oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Place Panko crumbs in a shallow bowl.

Rinse pork chops with water, then dip in the egg mixture. Coat with Panko crumbs, dip in the egg mixture again, and coat with another layer of Panko crumbs. Arrange coated chops on a plate until all are prepared. If time allows, let them sit for about 10 minutes to allow the coating to set well. If freezing the chops, proceed at this stage.

When the oil is hot, carefully place pork chops in the pan and fry for approximately 5 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown.
