• Add the water(for the rice) to a medium saucepan and bring to the boil. • Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. • Cook for 12 minutes, then remove pan from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and all the water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, separate pork schnitzels (if stuck together) to get two per person. • In a shallow bowl, combine sweet soy seasoning, the plain flour and a pinch of salt. In a second shallow bowl, whisk the egg. In a third shallow bowl, place panko breadcrumbs and sesame seeds. Dip pork into flour mixture to coat, then into egg, and finally in breadcrumbs. Set aside on a plate.
• Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with enough olive oil to coat the base. • Cook pork schnitzels in batches until golden and cooked through, 1-2 minutes each side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. • Wipe out and return frying pan to medium-low heat. Add katsu paste, the brown sugar, water and butter. Cook, stirring, until slightly reduced, 2-3 minutes.
TIP: Add extra oil if needed so the pork schnitzel doesn't stick to the pan!
• Slice crumbed pork. In a medium bowl, combine shredded cabbage, baby leaves and mayonnaise. • Divide jasmine rice and creamy slaw between bowls. Top with sesame-crumbed pork. • Drizzle over katsu sauce to serve. Enjoy!
