Method

Ingredients

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. To make the dressing, place all the ingredients into a blender and blitz until combined but not completely smooth.
2. To make the katsu pork, tenderise each pork medallion until even in thickness using a meat mallet, then dip each piece into the flour, egg and panko crumbs.
3. Heat the canola oil and butter in a large pan, then fry the pork until golden brown on both sides. Finish off in the oven.
4. Brush both sides of a jaffle iron liberally with butter. Top 4 slices of bread with 1 T sesame dressing, 1 T mayonnaise, a piece of pork and a handful of cabbage. Top with the remaining slices of bread, then place in the jaffle iron until golden.
