Tonkatsu Sauce (Japanese-Style for Korean Tonkatsu, 돈가스 소스)
This tonkatsu sauce recipe is inspired by the Japanese version for the tonkatsu I introduced earlier. In Korea, we usually purchase pre-made tonkatsu sauce rather than making it at home, as it's readily available due to Japan's proximity. There are also Korean-produced tonkatsu sauces. However, if you’re in Germany, you can easily find Worcestershire sauce, which makes it simple to create your own version of tonkatsu sauce.
Instructions
Combine the ingredients:
In a pan, add all ingredients except the cornstarch slurry. Stir well while bringing the mixture to a boil.
Thicken the sauce:
Once it starts boiling, reduce the heat and slowly add the cornstarch slurry while stirring continuously. Stir until the sauce thickens.
That's it—your delicious tonkatsu sauce is ready! Pour it generously over your fried tonkatsu to enjoy an authentic taste. 😊
