About Katsuya’s Aigake Western Cutlet Rice
The dish is based on Western katsudon, a Niigata Prefecture specialty from Nagaoka. Katsuya’s version pairs a freshly breaded loin cutlet with a demi-glace sauce and a ketchup mayonnaise “Aurora” sauce. A runny egg yolk can be mixed with the cutlet and the springy Napolitan pasta for a richer bite.
