Enjoy a blissful moment eating the special treat “hirekatsu”

ヒレカツ（Hirekatsu)

What kind of dish is Hirekatsu??

I fried a bite-sized pork tenderloin.

Even if you care about your body, sometimes you want to eat fried food. For those who are concerned about calories and fat, pork tenderloin is recommended.

Pork tenderloin is low in calories and high in protein. About the same calories and protein as skinless chicken breast.

Compared to using the same amount of pork loin, the fat content is 11g less, so the calorie is about 100kcal lower. And it’s soft and delicious.

Pork tenderloin contains a lot of vitamin B1, which has the effect of promoting fatigue recovery. This is more than 10 times the content of beef tenderloin. It is the perfect ingredient for dieters, health-conscious people, and people who train(*˘︶˘♡)｡.:*☆

The oil absorption rate of oil is calculated as 15% of the material.

I’m Naoko. After graduating from a registered dietitian training school, I am working as a registered dietitian at a hospital in Japan. I love to cook and eat delicious food. I make recipes with calorie counting. The reason why all the ingredients are written as “g” is to accurately calculate calories. I am especially good at cooking with pressure cookers and ovens. I would like to introduce the recipe to foreigners who are interested in Japanese food. So I started writing Japanese home cooking recipes on my blog in English. 大学卒業後、管理栄養士として病院で勤務しています。レシピはカロリー計算を出来るだけ正確に行いたいので“g”で表記しています。日本の家庭料理のレシピを英語で紹介しています。圧力鍋とオーブンを使う料理が得意です。日本食・和食に興味を持ってもらえたら嬉しいです。よろしくお願いします(*ˊᵕˋ)♡‧₊
