Pork katsu curry

  • Prep time 15 mins
  • Cook time 20 mins
  • Serves 4

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless pork loin steaks
  • 75g seasoned plain flour
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 25g panko breadcrumbs
  • oil, for shallow frying

For the sauce:

  • 1 tsp vegetable oil
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 5cm piece of root ginger, grated
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 tbsp medium curry powder
  • 2 tbsp plain flour
  • 250ml chicken stock
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp honey

Method

Pork katsu curry: crispy breaded pork steaks served with a homemade onion, garlic and ginger sauce, sticky rice and salad.



  1. Make the sauce by heating the oil in a pan and frying the onion for a few minutes until it is softened and starting to colour.
  2. Add the garlic and ginger and cook for few more minutes.
  3. Add the curry powder and flour and stir for a further minute.
  4. Slowly add the stock, stirring all the time to avoid any lumps.
  5. Add the honey and soy sauce; boil and simmer for approximately 10 minutes (you may need to add more water if it’s a bit thick).
  6. If you want a smooth sauce, place it in a blender now.
  7. Prepare the pork by loosely wrapping it in cling film and lightly bash with a rolling pin to make the steaks a little thinner.
  8. Put the flour, egg and breadcrumbs into three different shallow bowls or plates. Dip the steaks in the flour, then the egg and then in the breadcrumbs, ensuring they’re all well coated.
  9. Gently heat the oil in a frying pan and cook the pork steaks over a low-medium heat until cooked – approximately 8 minutes each side.
  10. Serve with sticky rice, the delicious katsu curry sauce and a nice crisp salad or slaw.
