Number Of Ingredients 23

1 tablespoon butter
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
1 green apple, peeled, cored and diced
2 cups water
1 banana, sliced
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 teaspoon curry powder
1 tablespoon tomato ketchup
1 cup chicken broth
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon cornstarch
4 chicken breasts, skinless and boneless
2 tablespoons flour
2 eggs, beaten
5 tablespoons breadcrumbs, dried
2 cups vegetable oil, for deep frying
1 tablespoon butter
1 small onion
2 carrots, diced, boiled
2 potatoes, diced, boiled

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.
  • Tip the sauce into a large sieve or colander placed over a bowl, reserving any katsu curry sauce that drips into the bowl.
  • 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 potatoes.
  • Stir and fry for 5-8 minutes, over a moderate heat, until just beginning to turn golden.
  • Pour in the prepared katsu curry sauce, bring to a boil and simmer for 4-5 minutes.
  • Slice the chicken breasts into strips and serve with a heap of steamed rice.
  • Accompany with the piping hot vegetable curry sauce.
