About Gyukatsu

Gyukatsu is a Japanese dish consisting of breaded, deep-fried beef cutlet, typically made using high-quality cuts like sirloin or filet. The beef is lightly coated in flour, dipped in egg, and covered with panko breadcrumbs before being fried until golden brown. What sets Gyukatsu apart from other fried dishes is that the meat is cooked rare or medium rare, preserving its natural juices and tenderness. Originating from Japan, Gyukatsu offers an indulgent yet protein-rich eating experience, boasting essential nutrients like iron and vitamin B12 from the beef. However, its preparation involves frying, making it higher in fat and calories due to the oil and breading used. Often served with shredded cabbage, miso soup, and rice, these accompaniments can provide fiber and balance to the meal. While delicious, those mindful of their diet may choose smaller portions or pair it with lighter side dishes.
