Katsu Curry (Japanese Curry with Chicken Cutlet)
Katsu curry is just a variation of Japanese curry with a chicken cutlet on top. I have used a store-bought block of Japanese curry roux which is commonly used in Japanese households. It is not an exaggeration to say that Japanese curry = store-bought curry roux. Chicken cutlet brings the Japanese curry (Japanese version of chicken schnitzel) up to the next level. It’s so yummy and filling.
