 Overview:

A mild, thick Japanese curry served with breaded cutlet (katsu) and rice. The flavour is rich, slightly sweet and comforting.

Ingredients

  • 2 pork or chicken cutlets
  • Flour, egg and panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 1 carrot, chopped
  • 1 potato, cubed
  • 500 ml stock
  • 2 Japanese curry roux blocks
  • Oil for frying
  • Cooked short-grain rice

Method

  1. Bread the cutlet: Coat the meat in flour, egg, then panko breadcrumbs.
  2. Fry: Deep-fry until golden and crisp. Slice into strips.
  3. Make curry: Simmer onion, carrot and potato in stock until tender.
  4. Add curry roux blocks and stir until thickened.
  5. Serve: Rice on one side, curry sauce beside it, sliced katsu on top.

Quick tip:
Most curries improve the next day because the spices and aromatics continue to develop overnight.
