I think this is called Kushikatsu. Just deep fried skewers of stuff. In this case: pork, leek and mushrooms.
i bought a pretty tender cut anyway, though i realise i meant to get a fatty cut for this instead oops oh well.
Chopped into good stabbable cubes
I only managed to get a pack of mixed mushrooms that contained a few shiitake mushrooms, so im going to use some other random mushrooms as well.
Got plenty of pork and not a lot of patience so im just gonna go hard on the pork and use any leftover veg in a stir fry or something.
Oh this is really hard tryna get all the flour and egg into these nooks and crannies of a skewer. I wonder if it'd have been so bad to coat them before we put them on the skewer really? Well this is the mama method.
Oops i didnt buy regular panko, this should be fine though. Precision german engineered breadcrumbs. These are like, eerily uniform.
Once again, we are abusing our compact deep fryer. I picked these up with tongs and flipped them halfway through so theyd cook on both ends of course.

Yep im happy with these. The pork was a little tough maybe i cooked them too hard cause i was scared of undercooking pork, or maybe because i shoulda got pork belly. Didnt say what oddly specific variant of brown sauce to have these with, but I used some of that takoyaki sauce I already have and it was nice. These would be great for a party, especially if you can get guests to do some of the work for you.
