Curry or 'kare' is one of Japan’s national dishes - though it didn't exist there until the British Navy introduced curry powder in the Meiji period over 100 years ago. Nowadays, it is ranked near the top of almost all Japanese surveys for favourite foods, and the average Japanese person eats curry at least once a week. Katsu curry (or katsukare) is one of the most famous and popular varieties, consisting of a mild curry sauce thickened with flour and vegetables that's served with breaded and fried tofu, pork or chicken. We’re serving the tofu katsu curry here with two types of pickle, furikake seasoned rice, coleslaw and delicious soy marinated eggs.

Product Rating (2):
Great combination and contrast of flavours. The richness of fried tofu in breadcrumbs with curry sauce vs gentle slaw and rice vs the vinegary bite of the pickles. I loved this recipe as it is so different from what I would normally cook as a curry
This was a delicious and rich curry which took us back to our fabulous holiday in japan a few years ago. And of course the obligatory eggs were good too.
This looks amazing, Cara - we are delighted to hear that it brought back happy memories of your trip to Japan!
