I keep meaning to try a tonkatsu with sauce - but i have a question. When you pack fried things (like this or tempura, etc) how do you keep them from going soggy and getting vaguely nasty? I've been avoiding fried foods because I worry about that, but so many people seem to include them that I decided there must be something I'm missing.
I try to let them cool down before frying. Also, I think it depends on what batter you use. For something breaded like this, a quick nuke in the microwave does wonders. But something with a light batter like tempura, I've never tried since I fear it'll get soggy. Personally, I don't think tonkatsu gets nasty even when it's soggy. But then, that just might be me ^_^;;
Now that you mentioned it, it does look like eggs and cheese. Or even broken up Maja mais. ^_^;; But really, I can't help but sing praises to this mango pudding.
Lol, Candy AND soap? I do hope they didn't pack them together. I still remember drinking a batch of Dove Soap-flavored Iced tea. And Tonkatsu? As long as your oil's hot enough, I don't think it would be too hard. You may want to use a pair of tongs instead of a spatula / pancake turner so you won't have to worry about the oil splattering on you. But breaded food is generally less splattery so no need to fear.
