How to cook

Preparing the chicken or veggie/vegan option

1. Heat the oil in a large pan on a medium-high heat.

2. Butterfly the chicken breasts in half, not cutting them in half. Or slice your sweet potato and/or butternut squash in to large flat slices.

3. Dip the chicken or veggies in a bowl of flour, then directly transfer to another bowl of the beaten egg, then transfer to the third bowl of panko breadcrumbs - making sure it's all covered.

4. Gently place the chicken or veggies in your hot pan. Cook for 10-15 minutes each side until golden brown and cooked right through. If you're using veggies, make sure your slices are soft to cut.

Preparing the sauce

1. Heat the oil in a sauce pan on a medium-high heat.

2. Start to soften the onions, garlic and ginger (approx 5 mins).

3. Add the flour, and 2 and a half tablespoons of our Katsu Curry Blend. Stir in and cook for 1 minute.

4. Slowly add the stock, followed by the coconut milk and soy sauce.

5. Strain through a sieve, a little bit at a time, to make the sauce smooth.

6. Slice the chicken up into lengths. Or served the vegetable slices whole.

7. Serve on a bed of white rice, pour over the sauce, and enjoy!
