Dust each tofu cakes with seasoned flour and then dip with whisked egg then coat with panko crumbs making sure all the surface are covered with panko crumbs completely.
Heat oil in a deep-frying pan or a wok to 170C and then slide tofu cakes into the pan to deep fry then until golden colour. This should be about 2-3 minutes. Take them out onto layers of kitchen papers.
Place the cooked rice and tofu katsu cakes on top of rice in large bowls or pasta plates. Pour the curry sauce sideways over a third of tofu katsu, so that two-thirds is dry, and one-third is covered with sauce. Place the fukushin-zuke or any pickled vegetables on the side.
