Hello everyone and welcome to the
first episode of “Cooking is easy by Jeabfy”. I’m your host, Jeabfy. “Cooking
is easy” is a podcast that inspire you to cook even you don’t know how. Before,
I came to the USA. I was a normal woman who loves to eat. I like Thai food,
Japanese food, Korean food, Chinese food and Italian food.
At that time I never cook by
myself, I just help my aunt to prepare ingredient likes cut vegetable, clean
meat and buy some herb. Since I come to the USA and my friend told me that if I
like to eat you have to be good cooker because I had experience with taste and I
can make it. I start cook 3 years ago. Now I can make food more than 50 menus
in variety type of food. My food is not complicate but full of taste. I grow
with the country that has variety taste in one dish. Thai food can be sweet,
spicy, salt, bitter and sour in one dish. Thailand is a country that rich in ingredients.
We have jasmine rice, fresh vegetable and fresh fruit. Most of all can be ingredients
in Thai food.
My personal I like Thai food the
best but second one that I really love is Japanese food. In my country Japanese
food is expensive. I like fresh fish. They called sashimi, I like Tuna, salmon,
and yellowtail. The first Japanese dish that I was cook is Tonkatsu over rice. I
made this dish to offering to my family that passes away on Chinese New Year
long time ago. And this is a perfect time to cook this menu again.
Today I will be teaching you how to
make “Tonkatsu curry”. Tonkatsu is bread deep fried pork cutlet. This menu is
very popular Japanese dish. It is easy and yummy. I recommend you guy to buy sauce
mix for curry. It saves time and tasty. You
can choose level of spicy mild, medium or hot. First step to make curry, you
have to boil water and add sauce in to the pot, stir often until the sauce melt
and add vegetables that you need like carrot potato or celery.
The next one is making Tonkatsu. I recommend
you to buy pork loin; this part is tender and moisture. Cut pork in size you want
(not to thick it hard to cook them). Pre pare the large bowl with whipped egg
and put Panko in another bowl. Panko is bread crumbs that bigger flake. It makes
your Tonkatsu crispy when you deep fried.
Dipped the cutlet pork with tempura powder and put in egg mixture and dredge
in panko. You have to heat the oil in a wok until the oil get 350F. Drop the
pork into the oil, fried until outside come to gold color. Use chopstick to
flip or press the meat. Do not use high heat. Bring it up on tissue towel to
absorb the oil. You can cut the meat to check that is cook.
When you serve this dish put a
scoop of Japanese rice (short grain). Put curry onside and put Tonkatsu on
topped the rice. You can check the picture with recipes in my blog or our
website. Hope you enjoy cooking and enjoy eating. Remember all the time “cooking
is easy”. Thank you for listen my
podcast today. See you next episode with my popular dish “instant noodle
seafood salad”. Have a nice day. Bye Bye.
