See recipes for Non-Fried, Oven-Baked "Menchi Katsu" (Minced Meat Cutlet) too. But Menchi Katsu is mainly made of minced/ground beef and pork with sautéed onions, while Korokke is made of mashed potatoes with a small amount of minced/ground pork. Since Menchi Katsu is a breaded deep fried meat, it's like Tonkatsu (Japanese Pork Schnitzel) and only difference is that the meat is ground meat. Use the combination of beef and pork.

Instructions to make Cabbage Menchi Katsu (With Grated Onion Sauce):
  1. [Grated Onion Sauce] Combine all the ingredients except for the katakuriko slurry in a pot. Once it comes to a slight boil, add the katakuriko slurry to thicken.
  2. [Easy 2-Step Batter] Crack the egg open into a bowl and beat. Add the cake flour and water and mix well.
  3. Finely chop the cabbage, rub in the salt, and let sit for a bit. Finely chop the onion. Add the panko and milk and let soak.
  4. Combine the meat, egg, the Step cabbage (wring out the moisture), the Step 3 onions, the Step 3 panko, salt, and pepper in a bowl and knead well with your hands.
  5. Divide Step 4's meat mixture into 6 cm diameter, 1 cm thick patties and arrange in a small pan.
  6. Dredge Step 5 in the batter from Step 2. (If you grip it with chopsticks, it will probably crumble, so get enough batter on it so that it doesn't break when picked up.)
  7. Coat both sides of the meat from Step 6 with panko in a bowl.
  8. Heat the oil and fry Step 7 in it. Transfer to a plate and top with the grated onion from Step 1.

Since Menchi Katsu is a breaded deep fried meat, it's like Tonkatsu (Japanese Pork Schnitzel) and only difference is that the meat is ground meat. Use the combination of beef and pork. Typically menchi katsu is made with both beef and pork, with beef being slightly more than pork. Deep-frying the onion slowly will make it sweeter, giving the menchi-katsu a more delicious taste. Gently remove the menchi-katsu with tongs, drain the excess oil and temporarily place them onto a cooling rack.
