Preheat the oven to 400F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Have 3 shallow bowls or rimmed plates ready.
To make the sauce: Pour boiling water over prunes to cover and let soak 5 minutes. Strain, saving 1/2 cup soaking water. In a blender or food processor, puree prunes with soaking water until nearly smooth. Add remaining sauce ingredients and blend until smooth (makes about 1 cup sauce).
In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the oil. Add the panko and toast, stirring often, until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Transfer to one of the bowls. Beat egg in another bowl. Put the flour in remaining bowl.
To prepare the pork: Place each piece between two pieces of plastic wrap. With the flat side of a mallet, pound to 1/4-inch thick. Dredge each piece in the flour, followed by the egg, followed by the panko, pressing pork into the panko to ensure each piece is evenly coated. Place on prepared baking sheet and bake until cooked through, about 20 minutes. For each serving, slice pork into strips and place on a plate with 1/2 cup cabbage a lemon wedge. Spread a little sauce over the top and serve more on the side for dipping.
