Ingredients
For The Katsu Curry Sauce;
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 onion diced
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger minced
- 1 tablespoon mild curry powder
- 1 star anise
- 1 1/2 tablespoons flour
- 500 milliters (2 cups) chicken stock
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
For The SPAM® Fritters;
- 400 grams (14 ounces) 2 tins SPAM® Chopped Pork and Ham
- 65 grams (1/2 cup) flour seasoned with salt
- 1 egg beaten
- 100 grams (1 cup + 1 tablespoon) Panko breadcrumbs
- oil for frying
Instructions
To Make The Katsu Curry Sauce;
- Heat oil in a saucepan, and sauté onion for about 5 minutes until soft.
- Stir in garlic and ginger, sauté for about 15 seconds until fragrant.
- Add curry powder and star anise and cook for another 10 seconds.
- Mix in the flour and gradually stir in the stock, making sure the flour is fully dissolved.
- Next, add honey and soy sauce, reduce to a simmer and simmer uncovered for about 15 minutes to thicken.
- Switch off the heat, allow the sauce to cool. Then blitz with an immersion blender to create a smooth sauce.
To Make The SPAM® Fritters;
- Remove SPAM® from the tins and slice into even sections.
- Using three shallow bowls, and add flour to one, the beaten egg to another, and breadcrumbs to the third.
- First dredge slices in the flour, then dip into the egg, then place in the breadcrumbs.
- Transfer coated slices to a plate or lined baking tray.
- Heat oil in a frying pan on medium heat, and fry each side of the fritters until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.
- Remove and set on a plate lined with paper towels. Continue until all fritters have been cooked.
To Serve;
- Add sliced fritter to bowls with rice, katsu curry sauce, and any desired toppings.
Notes
- There are 10 Blue Plan SmartPoints in a serving of this.
- Make sure to remove the SPAM® from the tin in one piece. Then rest it on its side to slice into even sections.
- If there is too much moisture in the flour or breadcrumbs, scoop that part out of the bowl and add more if needed.
- Don’t let the fritter sit in the coating mix or it will get soggy. Transfer to plate or baking tray and then cook right away.
- For extra flavour, add spices or herbs to the panko breadcrumbs.
- It’s important to use an oil with a high smoke point such as sunflower, vegetable, or rapeseed. I don’t recommend using olive oil.
