Japanese Air-Fried Pork Tonkatsu
Tonkatsu is a Japanese version of deep-fried pork chops with a special tangy sauce. Though the air fryer will never duplicate a true deep-fried taste, the appliance is fast, cleanup is a breeze, and there is no used oil to store. Tonkatsu is usually served with raw cabbage, but use this handy air fryer technique, call it "fried pork chops", and serve with your family favorites. I won't tell them it's Japanese, if you don't!

Cook's Notes:
Cooking spray is used to enhance browning.
Tonkatsu sauce can be purchased at any Asian market or you can make your own. Or you can serve the pork chops American-style with your favorite barbecue sauce.
Air fryer brands differ in performance and capacity. Total cooking time depends on the number of batches for your appliance.
