For the curry sauce
For the tofu katsu
For the quickles
This vegan katsu curry is guaranteed to make you dance! The sweet and spicy Japanese curry sauce is made from a roux with onions, garlic, ginger, and apple (the secret to the sweetness), refined with curry powder and tomato paste. Soy sauce, ketchup, and maple syrup provide the signature balance of umami, sweet, and slightly sour. The tofu is coated in cornstarch and panko and fried until crispy. The pickled quickles of cucumber and red onion with cilantro add a touch of freshness. Paired with rice, this is a dish that appeals to all the senses and delivers genuine happiness. Japanese comfort food that shows: vegan cuisine can be just as satisfying! 🍛💃
