Cooking Steps
- Add the water (for the rice) to a medium saucepan and bring to the boil.
- Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low.
- Cook for 10 minutes, then remove the pan from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and all the water is absorbed, 10 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek
- Meanwhile, using a vegetable peeler, peel carrot into ribbons. Thinly slice cucumber into half moons.
- In a shallow bowl, combine the plain flour. In a second shallow bowl, whisk the egg. In a third shallow bowl, place panko breadcrumbs.
- Dip pork into flour mixture to coat, followed by the egg, and finally in breadcrumbs. Set aside on a plate.
- When rice has 10 minutes remaining, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with enough olive oil to coat the base.
- Cook pork schnitzel in batches until golden and cooked through, 1-2 minutes each side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
TIP: Ensure the oil is hot before cooking the pork schnitzels for best results!
- Wash out frying pan and return to medium high heat. Cook Japanese curry paste and the water (for the sauce), stirring to combine, until slightly reduced, 2-3 minutes.
- Add the butter and stir until melted and combined, 1 minute.
- While the sauce is cooking, in a large bowl combine Japanese dressing, half the shredded cabbage mix, carrot and cucumber. Season to taste.
- Slice pork and reserve a portion for lunch.
- Place rice and slaw in a bowl. Top with pork katsu and drizzle over curry sauce to serve. Enjoy!
- When you're ready to pack lunch, place mixed salad leaves, pickled ginger, sesame dressing and remaining veggies in a container. Top with reserved crumbed pork. Refrigerate.
- At lunch, drizzle over dressing, toss well to combine and season to tatse.
- Enjoy!
