anime magic

It's kinda like a fried salisbury steak from what I understand. Meat is very expensive in Japan.

Here we go, from our old friend Francis.

covered burger patty

Maybe they meant cubed?

>>10634090

The translator just slapped "cuttlet" on there because he liked the word i think.

It's just a burger covered in bread crumbs

>>10634090
Yes. You put in on fridge, put some bread coating and deepfry it.
Oooor, what it means is beef croquette which is a deepfried breaded minced meat and potatoes patty.

>very expensive
Nope

>>10634391
8 USD/lb+ for ground beef isn't expensive? The fuck?

>>10634391
No, croquettes are their own thing in Japan. It's mixed ground meats and onion deepfried in panko.

>>10634090
Didn't we already have a thread about this anime

>>10634339
In Japan "cutlet" not only refers to the general shape but the cooking technique used. You know it better as "katsu" like the chicken katsu they have in Hawaiian fast food places, and that has its roots from Japan.

>>10634402
Different anon, but I live in one of those overpriced parts of the country and ground beef is less than half that pretty much anywhere around.

>>10634447
Do some people really associate Katsu with Hawaiian fast food before they associate it with Japan?

>>10634391
No, japanese croquettes usually have potato in them along with the meat

>>10634090
you do minced pork like a burger patty
salt and pepper
dip in beaten egg
cover in breadcrumbs all around
fry in more than normal butter because the breading soaks some of it up
keep frying until the juices are clear and then enjoy

>>10634421
croquettes are potato based. they may (or may not) also have meat in them

>>10634596
That anime image doesn't mean anything. Menchikatsu or croquettes would look similar. From the picture it says "menchikatsu" (literally mince (meat) katsu), yet it says cutlets which doesn't even make sense. Moreover both of them usually found in street stalls and 7-11s, I never seen it in a restaurant before, especially menchikatsu.

>their own thing
No, croquettes are just croquettes..the difference might be different breading. Although variations exists it generally refers to the potato croquettes.

>>10634799
Menchikatsu is made from the burger meat, combination of beef and pork. In my market we have this combination in packets.

>>10634491
Yes I've always seen katsu at Hawaiian places and never noticed it at Japanese places.

>>10634090
Blessed are the meak

Fuck off weeb. I have never been to Japan but I know more than you because I am an unbiased party not blinded by weebism.

>>10636095
Washington-fag here, katsu is available in most Japanese and teriyaki restaurants around my area. I don't know if any Hawaiian places, but I haven't really looked very hard. I always associated it with Japanese coming before Hawaiian.

>>10634491
Modern Hawaiian food is heavily influenced by Japan, so if you were exposed to Hawaiian food before Japanese food you would.
Tacky luau restaurants were pretty popular in the 50s/60s, too.
