How to make...

1. Cover the beef with plastic wrap and pound it thin using a meat mallet. Evenly sprinkle salt and pepper on all sides of the beef. Let it sit for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to soak in.
2. Combine all the sauce ingredients in a bowl. Mix well and set aside.
3. Dredge the meat in all-purpose flour, ensuring the entire surface is covered. Dip the floured beef into the beaten eggs, then coat it with breadcrumbs until evenly covered.
4. Heat oil in a pan over low heat. Fry the coated beef until it turns golden brown. Remove and drain the excess oil.
5. Melt the butter in a pan over low heat, then stir in the flour. Cook until it turns light brown. If the mixture is too thick, add a little water while stirring continuously.
6. Add the prepared sauce mixture and stir until it comes to a boil.
7. Gradually pour in the milk while stirring, ensuring a smooth consistency.
8. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste, and adjust as necessary.
9. Plate the Tonkatsu, drizzle the sauce over it, or serve the sauce on the side. Enjoy while warm.
