  1. 1 Prepare the potstickers: Combine ground pork, napa cabbage, green onions, egg, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, Sriracha, and sesame oil in a bowl.
  2. 2 Arrange gyoza wrappers on a flat work surface. Place 1 teaspoon of pork mixture in the middle of each wrapper. Wet edges with your finger or a brush. Fold up sides to form a semicircle; pinch edges to seal.
  3. 3 Heat oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add 12 to 15 gyoza to the skillet. Cook until golden brown on the bottom, about 2 minutes. Pour in 1/2 cup water; cover and cook until water is absorbed, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer gyoza to a plate. Repeat with remaining gyoza.
  4. 4 Make the dipping sauce: Mix soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and Sriracha together. Serve dipping side alongside gyoza.

Instructions

  1. 1 Make curry sauce: Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Cook onions in hot oil until soft and starting to caramelize, about 8 minutes. Add potatoes and carrots. Pour in water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until potatoes are soft, about 45 minutes.
  2. 2 Remove from heat and stir in curry sauce mix until dissolved. Add ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, jam, and soy sauce. Simmer until sauce is thickened, 10 to 15 minutes.
  3. 3 Meanwhile, make chicken katsu: Flatten chicken breasts with a kitchen mallet to a thickness of 1/4 inch. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. 4 Place flour onto a large plate, add beaten egg to a small plate, and place bread crumbs onto a second large plate.
  5. 5 Press chicken into flour to coat, dip in beaten egg, and press in bread crumbs to coat generously.
  6. 6 Heat oil in a large saucepan to 355 degrees F (180 degrees C). Carefully lower breaded cutlets into hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into a cutlet should read 165 degrees F (75 degrees C).
  7. 7 While chicken is cooking, stir curry powder into sauce until incorporated.
  8. 8 Slice chicken into strips and spoon curry sauce over the top to serve.
