You might be already familiar with this dish. ‘Chicken Katsu Curry’ has been gaining in popularity. Interestingly, it’s ‘Chicken’ Cutlet Curry although the popular Katsu Curry in Japan is ‘Pork’ Cutlet Curry. I already shared my ‘Katsu Curry’ recipe on this website, but this fruity curry recipe is more accessible as you don’t need Japanese Curry Roux blocks.
