Katsu Pork With Sticky Rice Recipes

Steps:

• To make the sauce, heat the oil in a large pan and add the onion, carrot and apples. Cover and cook gently for 10 mins until softened, stirring a couple of times. Uncover the pan, turn up the heat, add the garlic and cook for 1 min.
• Stir in the curry powder and ginger. Cook for 1 min more, then stir in the tomato purée, honey, soy and cornflour. Gradually stir in the stock and simmer for 5 mins until the vegetables are totally soft and the sauce has thickened. Blitz with a blender or in a liquidiser until smooth, then season to taste with the sesame oil, salt and pepper. The sauce can be made up to 3 days ahead.
• While the sauce is cooking, put the pork between 2 sheets of cling film and bash with a rolling pin until the meat is about 1cm thick. In a shallow bowl, rub together the crumbs, turmeric and oil with some seasoning. Beat the egg white with a fork until a little frothy and have a non-stick baking tray ready.
• Put the rice in a saucepan with 400ml cold water and a pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, cover, then simmer for 10 mins. Take off the heat and set aside until ready to serve the pork.
• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Dip each piece of pork into the egg, then the crumbs, pressing them onto the surface before transferring the meat to the tray. Bake the pork for 10-15 mins or until golden and crisp, turning once if needed. Serve with the rice and katsu sauce, garnished with coriander, if using, plus pickled ginger, if you like.

Steps:

• Place the pork chops between two sheets of heavy plastic (resealable freezer bags work well) on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound the pork with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a 1/4-inch thickness (about .75 cm). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Pour oil into a skillet about 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) deep. Heat the oil over medium-high heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place the flour, egg, and panko crumbs in separate bowls. Coat each cutlet in flour, then egg, and finally in bread crumbs. Tap off any loose crumbs.
• Fry the cutlets until golden brown and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

Steps:

• Cook the rice as the label directs. Remove from the heat and set aside 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add 2 cups water, the carrots, turnips, broth, 3/4 teaspoon salt and
• a few grinds of pepper. Bring to a boil and add the curry mix; stir until combined. Reduce the heat to medium, cover and cook, stirring halfway through, until the sauce is thickened, about 10 minutes. Stir and add a little extra broth or water to thin, if needed; season with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
• Put the flour, beaten eggs and panko in 3 shallow dishes. Season the pork with salt and pepper. Coat a pork chop in the flour, shaking off the excess. Dip in the egg, letting the excess drip off, then coat with the panko. Repeat with the remaining pork.
• Fill another large pot with 2 inches of vegetable oil and heat over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 ̊ F. Deep-fry 2 pork chops until golden, about 6 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle lightly with salt. Repeat with the remaining 2 chops. Let rest 1 to 2 minutes.
• Divide the rice among bowls and ladle in the warm curry. Slice the pork and serve on top.

Steps:

• Make the dipping sauce:.
• Stir together 1 T. of hot water and the soy sauce, mirin, worcestershire sauce, ketchup and mustard. Set aside.
• Prep the pork:.
• Place the pork cutlets between 2 sheets of waxed paper or plastic wrap and pound them with a meat pounder until about 1/4 inch thick. In a shallow bowl, lightly beat the egg. Spread the flour and panko on 2 separate plates. Season the flour with the salt and pepper. Also, season the pork cutlets with salt on both sides. Then dip the pork first into the flour, then the egg and last the panko (coating both sides). Press the panko into the pork so it stays put.
• Panfry the pork:.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until just hot and then add the oil. Add the cutlets and fry, turning once, until golden brown on both sides and just opaque at the center (you don't want to overcook pork) - this should take approximately 5 minutes on each side.
• Tranfer the cutlets to paper towel to drain briefly, then cut across the grain into strips 1/2 inch thick.
• Serve with the dipping sauce and rice.
