When it comes to cooking, it’s very important to keep in mind that everyone started somewhere. I don’t know of a single person who came to be with a wooden cooking spoon and ready to go. There’s a good deal of learning which needs to be completed in order to develop into a prolific cook and then there is obviously room for improvement. Not only can you need to start with the basics in terms of cooking however you nearly need to start when learning to cook a fresh cuisine such as Chinese, Indian, Thai, or Indian food.

This means at any given time in your cooking cycle cycles there’s quite probably somebody somewhere that is better and/or worse in cooking compared to you personally. Take advantage of this because the best have bad days in terms of cooking. There are a lot of men and women who cook for different reasons. Some cook as a way to eat and live while others cook simply because they actually enjoy the whole process of cooking. Some cook through the times of emotional trauma and many others cookout of sheer boredom. Whatever your reason behind cooking or learning to cook you need to begin with the basics.

The first thing you have to master is what the different terminology you’ll discover in recipes actually means. There are many new and sometimes foreign sounding terms you may find in common recipes. These terms may mean the difference in recipe failure or success. You should find a way to locate a fantastic section in virtually any inclusive cook book which explains different definitions for unfamiliar speech. If you aren’t entirely sure what is meant with"folding into the eggs” it really is in your interests to look this up.

You will also detect as your own experience and confidence grows you will see your self more and more usually improvising as you proceed and adjusting recipes to meet your own personal preferences. If you prefer more or less of ingredients or want to generate a recipe somewhat more or less spicy in flavor that can be made simple alterations along the way in order to attain this objective. Put simply you will begin in time to create meals of one’s very own. And that’s something which you will not necessarily learn when it has to do with basic cooking skills for newbies but you’d never learn if you didn’t master those simple cooking skills.

Steps to make Tonkatsu or Katsu Curry:
  1. Add the rice to the rice cooker. Wash and rinse it a few times until it is no longer cloudy. Cook the rice and leave it there until ready for serving.
  2. Peel and slice carrots into rounds 0.5cm. Peel the onions and cut into quarter slices. Cut the mushrooms and broccoli florets in half. Slice the potatoes into quarters and set the vegetables aside.
  3. Boil about 5 cups of water in a kettle to save time. On medium heat, in a medium sized sauce pan place the carrots and potatoes. Add the hot water enough to cover the vegetables and cook until soft. In a colander drain the vegetables and set the carrots and potatoes aside.
  4. On medium heat, add oil in a wok and let it heat up for about a minute. Place onions in wok and sauté the onions until it becomes translucent, then add the carrots and potatoes and stir. Cook it for about a minute. Now add broccoli or mangetout and mushrooms and then the hot water (from kettle) enough to cover the vegetables. Let it cook for another 2-3 minutes stirring occasionally.
  5. Add the block of the curry sauce (add more or less depending on preference). Let it simmer gently, turning down the heat to low for 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally from time to time to prevent sauce and vegetables from sticking and burning. Then turn off heat and set aside.
  6. In the meantime as the curry cooks, prepare the pork by pounding each lion piece one by one until 0.5cm thick. Season with salt & pepper (add as much or little as you like).
  7. In two separate baking trays place the flour in one (season with a small amount of pepper & salt - optional) and in the other the panko breadcrumbs. In a bowl gently beat the eggs.
  8. Take a piece of pork lion (I used pork) or chicken breast and fully coat it all over in the flour on both sides. Dip into the egg and let any excess egg drip back into the bowl. Then place the pork in the panko breadcrumbs and cover the meat with it on both sides (including the edges). Place this on a large baking tray. Repeat the steps until all the pork has been used and set aside.
  9. In a wok or large pot add oil for shallow frying the breaded pork. On medium heat let the oil heat up. Drop a piece of panko breadcrumb into the oil. If it sizzles then the oil is ready. Place a piece of breaded meat into the wok. Let one side turn slightly golden brown before turning. Once brown turn over. Turn once more.
  10. When golden brown transfer onto kitchen paper placed on top of a plate or tray to allow the excess oil to drain. Repeat the process until all meat has been used.
  11. Place one breaded pork or chicken piece onto a chopping board. Cut into several slices (place remaining cooked meat in oven, on low temperature to keep warm) or leave whole. On a serving plate, add the rice, place the sliced meat next to it. Then ladle the curry sauce either on the side or on top of meat and rice (add as much or little as you wish). Garnish with sesame seeds (optional).
