Saturday night cinema at home.....my first attempt to make this katsudon and garlic fried rice accompany by the movie 127 hours~!
Ingredients:
Katsudon
~ 2 pieces of chicken breast
~ bread crumbs
~ 1 egg
~ touch of pepper
~ touch of salt
Garlic Fried Rice
~ few cloves of garlic
~ rice (preferable leftover rice)
~ 3 tablespoon of soy sauce
Garnishing:
~ handful of dried nori seaweed
~ handful of bonito flakes
took me more than half an hour to find this bread crumbs at the supermarket
luckily still found it..else my katsudon will not be nice without it
just few table spoon of the bread crumbs to coat the chicken breast
bonito flakes bought at the 100 yen shop @ Rm7.90
dried nori seaweed also bought at the 100 yen shop @ RM 5.90
2 fresh chicken breast
poke a few cut on the chicken breast to let it cook faster
Steps 1: beat the egg and pour it to the chicken breast. Seasoned it with touch of pepper and salt.
Steps 2: Coat the chicken breast with bread crumbs.
Steps 3: Heat the frying pan with some oil and fried the chicken breast.
until both side is golden brown
set it aside and cut it into slices when its cool down
Steps 4: Heat the frying pan with touch of oil then fry the garlic until fragrant. Add in the rice and seasoning.
i think i chopped too much of garlic...i should have minus half of the portion as in the picture.
But the suggested ingredients at the above should be good enough to cook for 2 persons portion.
4 tablespoon of soy sauce
fry the garlic until fragrant
add in the rice and the seasoning
keep frying it until the rice is dried and fragrant then can dish up
Steps 5: Garnish the garlic fried rice with the sliced seaweed and bonito flakes and also the katsudon cut into pieces.
top the fried rice with bonito flakes while its still hot
you'll see the 'dancing' flakes
katsudon with garlic fried rice for 2~!
*****
For this attempt, I gave myself 70/100. Its all because i put in too much of garlic which makes the fried rice kinda spicy. But hubby loves the katsudon very much....crunchy at the outside...juicy on the inside. Well, there were still room for improvement...hope i can make it to 100% tasty on my next attempt~!
Btw...the movie 127 hours were quite good~! It was based on a true survivor stories where a mountain climber becomes trapped under a boulder while canyoneering alone near Moab, Utah and resorts to desperate measures in order to survive. Its served great with my katsudon....yum~!
