If you make more than 1 tonkatsu at a time, that also drops the oil temperature. I usually make 1 tonkatsu at a time.

I made this two times so far, but I can't get it to look golden brown like yours and as crispy as the restaurant. Any suggestions? Followed steps and recipe.

To prevent from sticking, try using a 3QT pot. Fill it about halfway with oil and deep-fry at 375 degrees F. To know the correct oil temperature, try test frying a small batch of panko (about the size of a pea). The panko will float to the top in 1 second if the temperature is correct. If the heat is too low, the panko will sink. If it's too hot, the panko will burn. Try the <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00005KB37?ie=UTF8&tag=mamaloli-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00005KB37" rel="nofollow">FryDaddy Deep Fryer</a>. This is what I use and I highly recommend it. =) Hi~ I don’t think pan-frying is the best way for this recipe. To prevent from sticking, try using a 3QT pot.

It was delicious, but when i fried it in a pan, the panko batter sticked, and it made a mess. How do i prevent tonkatsu from sticking? Also, when i fry tonkatsu, what temperature must i fry it in the stove top (low, medium, or high)? hello, i tried doing this recipe.

I made the mistake of turning it to high and so my first piece was a bit burnt XD But the other three turned out perfect once I turned the heat down. Pictures of my first experimentation: http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i84/strawberry_yura/IMG_0794.jpg the two best are on top, and the burnt one is on bottom XD http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i84/strawberry_yura/IMG_0795.jpg Voila!
