Chicken katsu, rice and salad

Ingredients

  • 1 tsp oil
  • 1 medium onion, roughly chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
  • 10g fresh ginger, roughly chopped
  • 1 tsp curry powder
  • 1 star anise
  • 2 carrots
  • 180g chicken
  • 90g brown rice
  • 80g cucumber
  • 1 tbsp vinegar
  • 50g frozen peas

Method

  1. In a non-stick frying pan, heat the oil over a medium to low heat and add the chopped onion and one of the carrots roughly chopped, along with the star anise and cook, stirring occasionally until soft and sweet – roughly 8-10 minutes, adding in some water if the ingredients start to stick.
  2. After this time, add in the ginger, garlic and curry powder and continue to cook for a few minutes more.
  3. Blitz the vegetables in a food processor with a little water to create a thick sauce. Pop to one side.
  4. Cook the rice according to the packet instructions.
  5. Cut the remaining carrot and cucumber into ribbons and pop into a bowl.
  6. Cook the peas for 1 minute in some boiling water, before draining the water away and adding the peas to the carrot and cucumber.
  7. Add the vinegar and a pinch of salt. Stir and leave to marinade.
  8. Whilst the rice is cooking, place the chicken between some greaseproof paper and flatten with a saucepan or a rolling pin.
  9. Brush a non-stick pan or griddle with a little oil and cook the chicken until cooked through.
  10. To serve, warm through the sauce, divide the rice, salad and chicken between 2 plates and finish with the katsu sauce.
