Note

Extra Tips: For the best results, verify that the chicken pieces are of even thickness when butterflied. Double-coating the chicken in panko creates an extra-crispy crust. If the curry sauce is too thick, gradually add hot water until the desired consistency is reached. Let the chicken rest on a wire rack after cooking to maintain crispiness. Fresh panko breadcrumbs yield better results than standard breadcrumbs.

Sweet Aromas Fill the Kitchen

While your Ninja Speedi works its magic, intoxicating aromas of golden curry roux, freshly cooked rice, and crispy katsu will fill your kitchen.

You'll notice distinct layers of fragrance as the dish comes together - first, the earthy notes of steaming rice, followed by the rich, savory scent of curry spices mingling with onions and carrots.

As the katsu cooks, you'll catch waves of crispy panko breadcrumbs becoming perfectly golden brown.

There's something truly special about how these scents combine, creating that unmistakable Japanese curry house atmosphere right in your home.

You'll find yourself drawn to the kitchen, anticipating the moment when you can finally lift the lid and reveal your completed katsu curry masterpiece.
