Chicken Katsu Curry

An unusual, sweet-tasting curry from ching-he huang adds a south east asian touch to an indian-style curry.

Steps

Melt the butter in a saucepan and add the garlic , onions and apples.

Cover and cook for 5 minutes.

Pour over 1 cup of the water and bring to a simmer.

Stir in the banana , honey , turmeric , curry powder and ketchup.

Add the chicken broth and bring the sauce to boil.

Season with salt and pepper.

Mix the cornstarch with the remaining cup water , and add to the curry sauce.

Simmer for 20 minutes , stirring occasionally.

While the sauce is cooking , prepare the chicken breasts.

With a sharp knife , make two diagonal slashes across each breast and coat the chicken in flour on both sides.

Dip each chicken portion in beaten egg , and then roll them in the breadcrumbs.

Heat the oil in a wok and deep fry the chicken , two pieces at a time , for 3-4 minutes , until golden and crisp.

Remove from the pan , drain on absorbent paper and keep warm while you finish making the curry.

For the vegetable curry , melt the butter in a separate saucepan , and add the onions , carrots and pot.
