Season the pork chops or chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
Set up a breading station with three shallow dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs.
Dredge each piece of meat in flour, shake off the excess, dip in beaten eggs, and coat with panko breadcrumbs. Press to adhere evenly.
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Fry the breaded meat for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Peel and finely chop the onion. Peel and slice the carrot and potato into bite-sized pieces. Mince the garlic cloves.
In a separate pot, heat a little vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, sautΓ©ing until the onion becomes translucent.
Add the carrot and potato, stirring to coat with oil. Cook for about 5 minutes until they start to soften.
Mix in the curry powder and flour, stirring to combine well.
Slowly pour in the chicken stock, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat. Cook for about 15-20 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the sauce thickens.
Stir in the soy sauce and honey, adjusting seasonings to taste.
Slice the fried pork or chicken into strips.
Serve the katsu over a bed of steamed rice, generously ladle the curry sauce with vegetables over the top. Enjoy your katsu curry rice.
