Japanese Curry Rice or Chicken Curry Katsu Don

This is an All-Time Favourite of the household; even my my little precious Caitlin. A simple do which even Yuli my helper has mastered!!!

Ingredients:-

- 300g Chicken or Pork (cut into cubes)
- 1 large onion (cut into pieces)
- 1 carrot (cut into about 2x2 cm cube)
- 3 medium potatoes (cut into 2x2 cm cube)
- 750ml hot water
- 2 sticks of celery (cut into cubes)
- oil for frying
- Kokumaro Curry Sauce Mix (sold at Japanese stores or Cold Storage)

1. Use a medium-size pot.
2. Heat oil in pot and fry the meat for about 1 minute.
3. Pour int the onions, carrot and potatoes; and stir fry for about 2-3 minutes.
4. Add hot water and boil.
5. Then, simmer for about 10 minutes or until potatoes and carrots are soft.
6. Add the Kokumaro Curry Sauce Mix. The box comes in 2 separate packets. 1 packet serve for 5 people.
7. Cook until sauce thickens. But if you do find it a bit too thick for your liking; please add another 100-200ml of hot water.
8. Add the celery last and simmer for a while so that celery will still be crunchy.

If you prefer the Chicken Curry Katsu Don style whereby the chicken is fried with breadcrumbs; please go to my Breaded Chicken Chop in Mushroom Sauce recipe to get the recipe on breaded chicken chop. Once deep fried; slice the chicken chop and serve on a plate of hot rice and pour the curry sauce over.



Of course, whilst cooking using breaded chicken chop; you can omit the meat in the curry sauce mix.

Hope you will like this recipe as much as my family do.
