Pork Katsu with Green Cabbage Salad

Use June’s Air Fry cook mode to create a lighter version of tonkatsu, a beloved Japanese dish with an international cult following. Just like in the traditional recipe, you’ll dip seasoned pork loin cutlets in lightly beaten eggs and panko--but instead of digging out a huge pot and babysitting a few quarts of hot oil, you’ll use the Air Fry cook mode to crisp the coating while the June Food Thermometer ensures the pork is juicy, tender and accurately cooked. While the pork is air frying, whip together the green cabbage salad and tonkatsu dipping sauce. Feel free to use pre-shredded cabbage or coleslaw mix to save time
