Japanese Tori Menchi Katsu | Crispy Street Food Patties

Finely dice the onion, then sauté in a pan with 1 teaspoon of sunflower oil for 3-4 minutes until soft and translucent. Allow to cool completely.

Finely mince the chicken thigh fillets using a meat grinder or a sharp knife (to a minced meat consistency). Place into a large mixing bowl.

Add the cooled sautéed onion, finely chopped spring onions, grated ginger, and crushed garlic to the minced chicken. Season with soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and freshly ground black pepper, then crack in 1 egg and add 30 g of panko breadcrumbs to retain juiciness.
