Pork Katsu Curry

Updated: Sep 5, 2023

A delicious and satisfying Japanese dish that combines two main components: breaded and deep-fried pork cutlets (tonkatsu) and a rich, savory Japanese curry sauce. Tonkatsu consists of pork cutlets, typically from the pork loin or pork tenderloin. The meat is pounded or tenderized to ensure even cooking and tenderness.




The curry sauce in Pork Katsu Curry is a thick and flavorful Japanese curry sauce. It's not the same as Indian or Thai curry; Japanese curry is milder and has a sweeter, savory flavor. The curry sauce is made by sautéing onions, carrots, and other vegetables until they are soft and fragrant. Then, curry roux blocks or curry powder are added to create the base of the sauce.


The dish is typically assembled by placing a serving of steamed rice on a plate, followed by a generous spoonful of the curry sauce. The crispy pork cutlet is then sliced into strips and placed on top of the curry sauce. Some variations include serving the curry sauce on the side for diners to pour over the pork cutlet as they prefer.



Pork Katsu Curry is a comforting and hearty dish that combines the crispy, savory goodness of tonkatsu with the aromatic and slightly sweet Japanese curry sauce. It's a popular choice in Japanese restaurants and home kitchens, offering a satisfying and well-balanced meal that appeals to both kids and adults.
