Where it comes from
Katsu curry, a delightful combination of Japanese curry and crispy pork cutlet, originated in the mid-20th century as a fusion of Western and Japanese flavors. This dish has become a quintessential comfort food, often enjoyed on special occasions. Interestingly, it reflects Japan's unique take on curry, which is milder and sweeter than its Indian counterpart.
