Batch-cook plenty of the sauce so you always have a great dinner in the freezer. Andrew Hayes-Watkins SERVES 4 TAKES less than 40 minutes 8-12 good-quality fish fingers (depending on how hungry you are) 600g straight-to-wok udon noodles FOR THE KATSU SAUCE 2 onions, thinly sliced 2 carrots, scrubbed and thinly sliced 1⁄2 apple, peeled and thinly sliced 1 tbsp sunflower oil 1 garlic clove, crushed 1 tbsp ginger paste 4 tsp mild curry powder 1 tsp ground turmeric 400ml tin light coconut milk Salt and pepper TO SERVE A few sesame seeds or handful of coriander 1 cucumber, thinly sliced Lemon wedges Make the sauce by gently cooking the onions, carrots and apple together in a deep, lidded frying pan in the oil. When they’re soft and the onions are starting to turn golden, stir in the garlic and ginger paste for a minute. Stir in the spices and give them another minute to toast, then pour in the coconut milk. Rinse out the tin by half-filling with water and pouring in, too. Simmer, covered, for 20 minutes, then purée to a smooth sauce with a blender. Season well and pour back into the pan. Cook the fish fingers and noodles following the packet instructions. Warm the sauce through, and bubble until nice and thick if it’s a little thin. Add the hot udon noodles and toss together to thoroughly coat. Top the curried noodles with crispy fish fingers and a sprinkling of sesame seeds or coriander, and serve with the cucumber slices on the side and lemon wedges for squeezing over.
