Notes

  • Use a good quality Japanese curry roux. I like to use brands like S&B Golden Curry. If not, you can make your own roux from scratch for a more personalized flavor.
  • The best is to use fresh vegetables and meat for the best flavor. Common vegetables include onions, carrots, and potatoes. For protein, you can use beef, chicken, or pork.
  • Start with a smaller amount of roux and add more as needed. This helps you control the thickness of the curry. You can always add more roux to thicken it and add more water to  thinning it down.
  • Turn on medium small fire, cover the lid and cook for 10-15 minutes until the vegetables are a little soft.
  • Keep stirring vegetable and curry blocks make sure curry is well mixed
  • Always add salt to your taste. (If you don’t like to add salt, add more curry roux.)
  • Add diced chicken thigh and cook them until it's done.
