Katsu curry is practically Japan’s national dish, and we can see why! We’ve added a UCOOK twist and made it into a sandwich! Sweet and spicy finger-licking Katsu curry sauce is drizzled over crisp panko-crumbed pork schnitzel, which is nestled inside a fluffy ciabatta bun.

OFF WE GO!
Place a pan, with a lid, over a medium-low heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the diced onion and diced Apple. Cover with the lid and let fry for about 10 minutes, until slightly softened, shifting occasionally.
SOY SALAD
In a bowl, add the Cucumber matchsticks, the sliced red onion, ½ the chopped coriander, and ¾ of the soy sauce (to taste). Set aside to marinate in the fridge until serving.
LET’S GET SAUCY
When the onion and Apple are done, add the curry powder and fry for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant, shifting constantly. Add the tomato paste, the remaining soy sauce and 5ml of a sweetener of choice. Mix until fully combined. Increase the heat to a medium-high heat and gradually stir in 100ml of water. Simmer for 5-6 minutes, until thickened slightly. On completion, place in a blender, pulse until smooth, and season.
WHAT’S THE SCHNIT-UATION?
Whisk 1 egg in a shallow dish with 1 tsp of water. Prepare two more shallow dishes: one containing the flour (seasoned lightly) and the other containing the breadcrumbs. Coat the Pork schnitzel in the flour first, then in the egg, and lastly in the breadcrumbs. When passing through the breadcrumbs, press it into the meat so it sticks and coats evenly. Place a pan over a medium-high heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, fry the schnitzel for 1-2 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Remove from the pan on completion, drain on paper towel, and season.
TOASTS THE BUNS, HUN
