Vegan Chick'n Tonkatsu

1 package gardein chick'n scallopini
1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, divided
3/4 cup water
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 cup canola oil

SIMMERING SAUCE:
2 1/2 cups water
1 packet konbu dashi granules
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp mirin
1/2 tsp cube fresh ginger, peeled and grated
1/2 tsp garlic, peeled and grated

In a large skillet, combine the simmering sauce ingredients and bring to a boil. Put in the chick'n, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes on each side over medium heat, until all the liquid is absorbed.

Assemble 3 square pans. Fill the first with 1/4 cup flour, the second with 1 cup flour and water to make a thick paste, and the third with breadcrumbs. Dab the chick'n in the dusting flour, flour paste, and roll each piece in bread crumbs. Set aside.

In a small sauce pan, heat oil to 350 F. Slide the breaded chick'n into the oil and deep-fry one at a time for 30 seconds until crisp and golden brown. Drain on kitchen paper and serve hot with shredded cabbage and tonkatsu sauce.
