Let’s make a pork katsu sando. “Katsu” in Japanese refers to a “cutlet” of some sort – can be pork, chicken, beef, and recently I discovered even cheese. For this recipe, we’re going to use pork and make the best looking katsu sandwich, perfect for a lunch or even a light dinner.

Pork Katsu Sandwich

Cook: 7 minutes
This is fairly easy to make. You can even opt out of doing deep fry for air fry. Feel free to use any other meats, chicken works great for a katsu sando as well!
