Cooking Steps

Get prepped
1

• Thinly slice spring onion. Grate carrot. 
• In a shallow bowl, combine the plain flour and salt. In a second shallow bowl, whisk the egg. In a third shallow bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs and olive oil (2 tbs for 2 people / 1/4 cup for 4 people).
• Dip pork into flour mixture to coat, followed by the egg and finally in breadcrumbs. Set aside on a plate.

Cook the chicken
2

• 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!

Make the katsu sauce
3

• Meanwhile, boil the kettle.
• In a medium microwave-safe bowl, whisk together Japanese curry paste, the boiling water (1/4 cup for 2 people / 1/2 cup for 4 people) and brown sugar, until smooth. Add the butter and microwave until melted and combined, 30 seconds.

Toss the slaw
4

• In a large bowl, combine carrot, shredded cabbage mix and a drizzle of vinegar.
• Season to taste.

Heat the tortillas
5

• Microwave mini flour tortillas on a microwave-safe plate in 10 second bursts until warmed through.

Finish & serve
6

• Slice pork.
• Fill tacos with creamy slaw and Japanese pork schnitzels.
