  1. Place chicken breast between two pieces of grease-proof paper. Using a meat tenderiser or a rolling pin, pound until approximately 1.5 centimeters thick.
  2. Lay out flour, egg and breadcrumbs in three separate trays. Dip each chicken breast into flour first, shaking off any excess. Dredge in the whisked egg, again allowing excess to drip away. Finally, place on to panko breadcrumbs and pat down each side creating a nice, even coat.
  3. Heat oil in a frying pan, deep enough to cover at least one side of the chicken breast. Test the oil by dropping a single breadcrumb in – if it is ready, the oil will sizzle.
  4. Pan fry chicken breasts for approximately three minutes on each side. Adjust the heat if necessary – you don’t want your chicken to burn! They should be crunchy and golden on the outside. Once cooked, place on to a paper towel lined tray. Repeat process with second chicken breast.
  5. To make the curry udon: heat oil in a pot over medium heat. Add onions and carrots and cook until soft and lightly brown.
  6. Add garam masala and cayenne and stir through vegetables. Pour in dashi and soy sauce. Turn heat to low and add curry roux cubes, stirring well until they dissolve completely.
  7. Prepare udon noodles according to package instructions. Divide among soup bowls. Pour over curry broth. Slice chicken katsu, and divide among bowls – two large chicken breasts will serve four. To serve, sprinkle with spring onions and shichimi togarashi.
