Tips: Press and seal the edges firmly so the cheese does not leak out and cause the oil to splatter.
Tips: Let the breaded cutlet rest for about 5 minutes so the coating is less likely to come off during frying.
Tips: If a thick tonkatsu browns too quickly on the outside, lower the heat so the center can cook through.
