Ingredients

For the curry sauce:
  • 1 Onion diced
  • 1 Carrot diced
  • 4 Cloves of garlic chopped
  • 5 g Ginger chopped
  • 1 ½ tbsp Curry powder
  • 1 tsp Turmeric
  • 200 ml Chicken stock
  • 400 ml Coconut milk
  • 2 tbsp Soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp Honey
For the chicken katsu:
  • 2 Chicken breasts
  • 100 g Plain flour
  • 2 Eggs lightly beaten
  • 100 g Panko breadcrumbs

Instructions

For the curry sauce:
  • Heat a little cooking oil in a large pan over a medium to high heat. Cook the diced onion and carrot for about 5 minutes, until it softens.
  • Add the garlic and ginger and cook for 30 seconds. Chuck in the curry powder and turmeric and cook for a further minute.
  • Pour in the chicken stock and coconut milk. Bring it to the boil and reduce by half.
  • Use a blender to blitz until smooth. Then add the soy sauce and honey.
For the chicken katsu:
  • Place the chicken breasts into a sandwich bag, or alternatively between folded up cling film. Use a tenderising hammer or a rolling pin to bash the chicken until it’s an even thickness all the way through.
  • Coat the chicken in flour, beaten egg, and finally the panko breadcrumbs.
  • Shallow fry the chicken over a medium to high heat until it’s golden, crispy, and cooked through.
  • Slice the chicken into strips and serve with rice and the curry sauce.
