Ingredients
- meat (pork or chicken cutlet) - watch the video to see (pounded thin for tenderness)
- flour - watch the video to see (for coating the meat before egg bath)
- egg - watch the video to see (for egg bath to help breadcrumbs stick)
- panko breadcrumbs - watch the video to see (for coating the meat)
- oil - enough for shallow frying (for frying at 350°F (175°C))
- yellow onion - 1/2 onion (half, sliced elegantly)
- dashi or chicken stock - watch the video to see (for simmering the curry sauce)
- curry cubes - watch the video to see (half a portion)
- salt - watch the video to see (to taste)
- rice - watch the video to see (to serve with curry)
- red onion - watch the video to see (optional, for garnish or side)
Instructions
- Prepare the meat: Pound out the meat thinly to ensure tenderness and even cooking.
- Coat the meat: Lightly coat the meat with flour, then dip in egg bath, removing excess egg, and finally coat with panko breadcrumbs.
- Fry the cutlets: Heat oil to 350°F (175°C) and fry the breaded cutlets for about 2 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.
- Prepare the curry sauce base: Slice half a yellow onion elegantly by cutting around the onion to get nice slices. Sweat the onion in a pan until translucent.
- Simmer the curry: Add dashi or chicken stock to the onions and let simmer for about 10 minutes.
- Add curry cubes: Turn off the heat and add half a portion of curry cubes, stirring until the curry thickens.
- Season and serve: Add salt to taste. Serve the crispy katsu cutlets with the creamy curry sauce and rice. Optionally, garnish with red onion.
