Beef Katsu (ビーフカツ), also called Bifu Katsu or Gyukatsu (ビフカツ、牛カツ), is steak (cut beef) coated with Panko bread crumbs and deep-fried. Beef Katsu is very similar to Tonkatsu fried pork, but it is less known outside Japan. The richly flavored Beef Katsu is a little bit more expensive to make at home for everyday dinner, so it may be served more often for more special occasions.
