- For the brine
- 500ml milk
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- 1 tbsp shichimi togarashi
- (see tip)
- For the katsu mayo
- 50ml ketchup
- 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- ½ tbsp runny honey
- juice ½ lime
- 1 tsp hot mustard
- 2 tsp medium curry powder
- 3 tbsp mayonnaise
- For the chicken katsu

- handful shredded iceberg lettuce
- 2 spring onions

Method
- In a bowl, combine the ingredients for the brine with 1 tsp salt. Put the chicken in the brine, cover with cling film and marinate in the fridge for at least 3 hrs.
- To make the mayo, combine all the ingredients and stir until smooth.
- Half an hour before cooking, remove the chicken from the fridge. Crack the egg into a bowl and whisk with 2 tbsp of the brine. Mix the rice flour and panko, and spread out in a layer on a plate. Remove one chicken breast from the brine, shake off the excess, dip into the egg mix, then coat in the panko mix. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the other chicken breast.
- Heat the oil in a deep-fat fryer or large, heavy-bottomed saucepan until it reaches 180C, or a piece of bread browns in 30 secs. Fry for 10-12 mins until cooked through. Drain on kitchen paper, then slice each breast into 4-5 pieces.
- Split and toast the buns, then spread with the mayo. Add a layer of lettuce, spring onions and radishes, then top with the chicken and more mayo.
