Other than dim sum, we can also make katsu. If usually chicken is used for katsu, this time we can use beef! The method is also very easy, you only need to season the meat then coat it with flour and breadcrumbs, then fry it! Also try not to wash the meat and wipe the meat first before making it, so that the inside of the meat doesn’t spill everywhere and wet the katsu layer of flour and become mushy.
