An essential for all sandwich connoisseurs, Japanese Katsu Sando is a beautiful pork chop sandwich that makes for a great lunch or picnic menu. The meat is fried to crispy perfection and sandwiched between bread that's layered with tonkatsu sauce and shredded white cabbage. In this recipe, swap out the tonkatsu with our Miso + Ginger Stir Fry Sauce for a burst of unforgettable umami flavours in the mouth!
Chef’s note:
- Make an amazing set of Katsu Sando, using the airy and fluffy Brioche bread or any soft white bread that just melts in your mouth.
- Once the sandwich is built, settle it down by placing a weight on top for about 5 minutes. This recommended step helps maintain the shape of the sandwich when it's about to be cut.
