About Pork katsudon

Pork Katsudon is a classic Japanese dish that combines crispy pork cutlet (tonkatsu) with a savory-sweet egg and onion topping, served over a bed of steamed rice. The pork cutlet is coated in panko breadcrumbs and deep-fried until golden, then simmered in a flavorful sauce made from soy sauce, mirin, sugar, and dashi, along with beaten eggs and onions. Originating from Japan, Katsudon is a comforting and popular meal often enjoyed at home and in restaurants. While the dish is rich in protein from the pork and eggs, it is also high in calories and fats due to the frying process. Served with rice, it offers a good source of carbohydrates, but it can be high in sodium because of the sauce ingredients. To make it lighter, the cooking method can be adapted by air frying or baking the cutlet rather than deep-frying.
