This recipe lets you easily make authentic cheese curry bread using shokupan. Simply make the curry filling in the microwave, wrap it in thinly stretched shokupan, and pan-fry until golden. The gooey cheese and crispy coating are irresistible. Fun for kids to make too!

Ingredients

Main Ingredients (6 pieces)

  • Shokupan (6-slice thickness) 6 slices
  • String Cheese 1 stick
  • Carrot 40g
  • Onion 40g
  • Ground Beef and Pork 60g
  • Beaten Egg (for coating) (to taste)
  • Panko Breadcrumbs (for coating) (to taste)

Seasonings

  • [A] Ketchup 2 tsp
  • [A] Worcestershire Sauce 2 tsp
  • Water 3 tbsp
  • Pre-made Curry Roux 1 block

Steps

  1. Peel and finely chop 40g of carrot.
  2. Peel and finely chop 40g of onion.
  3. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chopped carrots and onions, 60g of ground beef and pork, 2 tsp of ketchup, 2 tsp of Worcestershire sauce, 3 tbsp of water, and 1 block of pre-made curry roux, finely chopped.
  4. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave at 600W. Remove once, stir well, and then re-cover.
  5. Remove the plastic wrap and microwave for another 1 minute 30 seconds. [Key Tip!] Curry paste can be easily made in the microwave.
  6. Trim the crusts off the shokupan (6-slice thickness).
  7. Thinly roll out the shokupan with a rolling pin. [Key Tip!] Rolling it thinly prevents it from absorbing too much oil, resulting in a delicious fried finish.
  8. Spread the curry paste evenly over the stretched shokupan. Leave a small border on the edges for sealing.
  9. Cut 1 stick of string cheese in half, and then cut each half into 3 pieces.
  10. Place the cheese on one side of the shokupan and fold to enclose the filling and cheese.
  11. Press the edges of the folded shokupan with chopsticks to seal. [Key Tip!] If the edges are not sticking well, lightly dampen them with water to help them seal.
  12. Dip the filled shokupan first in the beaten egg, then coat with panko breadcrumbs.
  13. Heat oil in a pot to medium-low heat (160-170°C / 320-338°F).
  14. Turn the heat to medium and pan-fry the coated shokupan until golden brown.
  15. Once the bottom is firm, move it around as it fries to prevent burning.
  16. After about 2 minutes 30 seconds, flip when it has a nice golden color.
  17. After another 2 minutes, flip again when the other side is also well-fried, and then remove from the pot.
  18. Fry the remaining shokupan pieces in the same way.
  19. The finished curry bread is best enjoyed while hot. [Key Tip!] You can enjoy the crispy texture of the coating and the gooey cheese fresh from the fryer.
