Katsu Curry recipe (for a vegan version - substitute chicken with crumbed tofu/aubergine steaks)
As you well know from our Instagram feed, we love using our blends in non-Indian recipes to 'spice' things up. The Katsu curry calls for a Tonkatsu sauce. From Japanese blogger, Namiko Chen, Just One Cookbook and others we found out that this sauce is made with vegetables and fruit like tomatoes, prunes, dates, apples, carrots, celery, onion and curry powder. With experimentation we found our Hurry Curry is the best fit for the spice component and have combined it with pantry items to create a delicious tangy sauce. We love this recipe as it comes together so quickly - truly a hurry curry if you use store bought schnitzel or tofu!
- Tenderise* 2 chicken breast fillets (around 500g)
- Heat a pan; then add 2 tbsp vegetable oil, 1/2 a diced onion and 2 cloves minced garlic.
