Curry Udon
Description
This Curry Udon recipe starts by sautéing thinly sliced onions in a neutral cooking oil until softened. Frozen thinly sliced beef is added and cooked through until browned. Water and dried bonito (hondashi) are added to create a flavorful broth, which is brought to a boil, then skimmed to remove any impurities. Japanese curry roux cubes are dissolved into the hot broth, thickening it and adding rich curry flavor. The pot simmers briefly to allow flavors to meld.
Meanwhile, udon noodles are cooked separately in boiling water according to package instructions, then drained. The thick, hearty curry broth with beef is ladled over the noodles in serving bowls. Chopped green onions add a fresh bite and mild sharpness that complements the warm curry broth and tender beef.
This dish serves well as a warming lunch or dinner, combining the chewy texture of udon noodles with savory curry and tender meat in a rich broth that highlights the combination of dashi and Japanese curry roux.
