katsu sandwich
Crispy meat filling
A katsu sandwich is a Japanese sandwich featuring a breaded and fried cutlet—usually pork (tonkatsu) or chicken—nestled between slices of soft white bread with tonkatsu sauce and sometimes cabbage.
The bread is typically crustless and pillowy, contrasting with the crispy coating.
Also called katsu sando, from the Japanese abbreviation of "sandwich."
