Cooking Steps

Make the rice
1

• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water.
• Add jasmine rice and a pinch of salt and cook, uncovered, over high heat 
until tender, 12-14 minutes. Drain, rinse with warm water and set aside.
• Meanwhile, thinly slice pear into wedges.
• In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg, plain flour, curry powder and a pinch of 
salt until combined. 
• In a second shallow bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs and olive oil 
(1/2 tbsp per person). 

TIP: No air fryer? Leave the oil out of the panko mixture!  

Cook the pork
2

• Dip pork schnitzels into egg mixture and then into breadcrumbs. Set aside 
on a plate.
• Set your air fryer to 200°C. Place crumbed pork into air fryer basket and 
cook until golden and cook, turning halfway, until golden and cooked 
through, 6-8 minutes (cook in batches if necessary). 

TIP: No air fryer? Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with enough olive oil to coat the base. When oil is hot, cook pork schnitzels in batches until golden and cooked through, 1-2 minutes each side. 

Cook the sauce
3

• Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over medium heat.
• Add Japanese curry paste, the brown sugar, water and butter. Cook, 
stirring, until slightly reduced, 1-2 minutes.
• In a large bowl, combined shredded cabbage mix, pear, garlic aioli, a 
drizzle of vinegar and the sesame oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Little cooks: Take the lead by combining the ingredients for the slaw!

Finish & serve
4

• Slice pork schnitzel.
• Divide jasmine rice between bowls. 
• Top with crispy pork cutlet and creamy slaw. Spoon the golden curry sauce 
over the pork.
• Garnish with crispy shallots to serve. Enjoy! 

Little cooks: Add the finishing touch by sprinkling over the crispy shallots!

Customer reviews

Review summary

Updated on Sept 2026
  • Flavour: The curry sauce and crispy schnitzel were standout elements, with several reviewers calling this one of their favourite meals; a couple of reviewers felt the pork turned out a little dry.
  • Ease of prep: Cooking the schnitzel in the air fryer was praised as quick and easy; the recipe also includes a frying pan alternative for those without one.
  • Suggestions: Consider doubling the curry sauce to ensure both schnitzels are well coated; if the sauce splits, keep the heat low and stir gently while cooking.
  • Portions: One reviewer noted the recipe made enough for three servings, suggesting it stretches well for a family.
