I always love a good Japanese chicken cutlet sandwich. Every time I bite into that sandwich, it brings nostalgic memories. My mum used to make her own version. Maybe perhaps I should re-create her recipe in the near future. That will definitely be on my to-do list. Back to this sandwich, I had been trying and finding ways to improve a chicken cutlet sandwich or chikin katsu sando. To be honest, this sando is inspired by JustOneCookbook and Nigella Lawson.
I am using Nigella's method of dredging into a mixture of eggs and mustard. But I used that as a marinade instead. The mustard really does help to keep the chicken breast moist during pan-frying. I am also using a mixture of cornflakes and panko for the breading. I love the contrast of hard crunchiness from the cornflakes and the light airy crispiness from the panko. To take things up a notch, I seasoned with Japanese 7 spices powder, aka, Shichimi Togarashi and nori flakes. Those 2 ingredients add a new level of umami. So, Please try to get your hands on those.
I get the homemade tonkatsu sauce recipe from JustOneCookbook. Why use store-bought when you can make this sauce with ease? When you make almost everything from scratch, you get to control the amount of each ingredient used to your preference. Anyway, I hope you will give this recipe a try.
