Tonkatsu (豚カツ, とんかつ or トンカツ) is a Japanese food consisting of a breaded, deep-fried pork cutlet. There are two main types, fillet and loin. It is often served with shredded cabbage… Tonkatsu originated in Japan in the 19th century. As well as being served as a single dish, it is also used as a sandwich filling or in combination with curry… It has been transliterated into Korean as 돈가스 / 돈가쓰 / 돈까스 and from there transliterated into English as donkasu / donkassu / donkkasu.
