Vegan Japanese Curry
This vegan Japanese curry is pure comfort food with tender veggies in a sweet and savory curry sauce and served over a bowl of steaming rice. So incredibly satisfying!
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion sliced, large
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 3 carrot sliced thick, large
- 3 yellow potatoes peeled and cut into bite-sized cubes, medium
- 1 honeycrisp apple peeled and finely diced
- 3 cups vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1.5 oz Japanese curry roux see notes, cubes
For serving (optional):
- jasmine rice cooked
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large pot.
- Add the onion slices and cook 4-5 minutes, until tender. Add the garlic and cook for an additional minute, stirring constantly.
- Add the carrots, potatoes, and apple and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the vegetable broth, soy sauce, and tomato paste and bring the mixture to a boil.
- Turn down to a simmer and cook for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the veggies are tender.
- Break up the curry roux cubes and add them to the pot. (Note: These sometimes come packaged as small cubes and sometimes as one large brick. Either way, you can gently crumble it into the pot.)
- Stir to combine, and cook an additional 5-10 minutes.
