We thought we'd give you a little reminder that this recipe was shared on our feed last week 😶 You're welcome.This Coriander Katsu with Cherry Tomato Kachumbari has been a team-favorite, and it's been a total hit with the loved ones we've gotten the chance to share it with! Honestly, we're sure we're not the first to say this, but we know this holiday season is a strange one, and celebrating with the usual feast may not be an option for you. We totally get that, and we want to be there for you, if that's the case.This dish, whether you're making a serving of one or having to make a batch to share, is perfect for getting that feeling of warmth and coziness onto your plate without the hassle of cooking up a whole turkey. It'll go great with other sides, and sliced up, it can even be a side itself! Whatever you decide, we highly suggest adding this dish to your holiday setup.Get the written recipe at: https://jikoni.co/coriander-katsu/

Initially, Jikoni was a kitchen studio space in Los Angeles used for shoots & production. Launching our community-based food site Jikoni.co was a goal further down the line, but in light of the current pandemic, this is a way to bring Jikoni to everyone (and vice versa) right now. As a Jikoni @patreon supporter you'll get:⁠
⁠
- early access to the recipe from our shows (which usually don't publish until the episodes air, which can be months after they've been created)⁠
- an exclusive Jikoni e-cookbook⁠
- a seasonal LIVE cooking class hosted by our test kitchen⁠

We all need a moment to slow down and fry some plantains. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Peel the skin from the starchy flesh, watch them sizzle in the hot oil, press them between wooden plates, a quick dip in salty water, listen to the crackle as they bathe in the oil for the second time, and feel the crunch when you take the first bite. *Bliss*⁠⠀

What's your go-to dish for slowing down and treating yourself?⁠⠀
