Japanese curry is different from Indian or Thai curries. It is more of a brown stew and it can be mild or spicy, depending on your tastes. The curry roux, from no heat to very spicy, can be bought at any international grocery store. It can be served over white rice or with udon noodles. This recipe is very flexible; it can easily be made for more or less people. It can also be frozen (don't put the potatoes in).

Ingredients

  • vegetable oil: 1 Tbsp (or more if needed)
  • beef chuck: 1.75 pound (cut into 2-inch cubes)
  • onions, quartered: 3 piece
  • ketchup: 1 Tbsp
  • Worcestershire sauce: 1.5 tsp
  • cayenne pepper: 1 pinch (to taste, optional)
  • water to cover: 0 piece
  • carrots: 4 piece (cut into 2-inch pieces)
  • chicken bouillon: 1 cube (optional)
  • potatoes, cut into 3-inch chunks: 3 medium
  • containers Japanese curry roux: 1.5 containers (3.5 ounce, to taste)

  2. Simmer, skimming fat off the surface of the broth as needed, for 30 minutes. Add potatoes. Stir in 1 package of curry roux and let dissolve; add remaining curry as needed to achieve desired thickness. Continue simmering until beef and vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes more.
