Chicken Katsu
« on: January 08, 2013, 12:06:45 pm »
I have a recipe for Chicken Katsu and I really want to make the sauce in the thermie rather than stirring over a hot stove. The sauce has some chopped garlic, ketchup, soy sauce, honey, korma paste and cornflour. Does anyone have any ideas how to go about it? I'm not really au fait with sauces in the thermomix! Any tips greatly appreciated! :)

TAT, reduce the water to 450 mls,  just bung all the sauce ingredients into the TMX bowl,  zap to mix the cornflour,  set TMX, 10 mins, 100 speed 4. Cook with cap out.  I have reduced the water as you don't get the same evaporation with the TMX.

TAT,  did you get my message ?  I have been doing some strange things on the Computer lately.
Love your Blog.  Yes you can use any of my recipes,  I would appreciate credit where due.

We love chicken katsu. I usually make my sauce in the TMX. Thanks for the reminder, we must have it again.

Achookwoman, you're a genius! Here it is! http://www.theannoyedthyroid.com/2013/01/09/thermomix-chicken-katsu/ Thanks for the method, it worked perfectly. I just had to put the steamer basket on the top to stop it spitting! We even steamed the rice and veggies all at the same time, it was so yummy. It wasn't quite as Katsu-esque as I'd like, maybe I'll add some curry powder next time, but delicious all the same!

Cookie, how do you make your sauce? Can you share the recipe?  :)

TAT I have put my recipe under main meals. Hopefully you will do the same when you have time. I took mine from a magazine ages ago and probably isn't very authentic. I serve it with rice and some pickled carrot and cucumber.
