Everybody loves curry and rice in Japan. Japanese businessman eat it at lunch and Keats learn how to make it at schools. Outdoor cooking events. When I was little, we had curry for lunch every Thursday at my kindergarten. When you hear a word curry, though, the first image that pops into your head maybe an Indian curry. Japanese curry is very different from Indian Oh, a Thai curry. It is a plate of sticky rice covered with rich and creamy Curries. Owes looks delicious, right. Curry and rice are available at various restaurants. There are even chain stores where you can customize your courage by choosing the source and toppings such as cheese tone cuts, pork cutlets on let's and deep fried vegetables. Curry is always chosen as a favorite Japanese food by foreign visitors. Most Japanese people cook the curry at home to, although it's recipe is quite simple, each household has its own special ingredients, a way of making it, so let me share mine.
2. You'll need: you need one character, one onion and two potatoes, half a pound of pork or beef. My mother used to make poke carry for my family, so it naturally became. My recipe means that Golic and Ginger one tablespoon each half a leader off water, some on leave oil to so today, the meat and vegetables and a box of Japanese curry.

You can find one or more off these packages in any Asian market, maybe even at regular supermarkets. Each brown of the curry roux usually comes with three levels of spiciness. Mild medium ah ha, but they are made for Japanese taste, so the hot level is not a spicy as Thai or Indian curry. Prior to making by curry, so's I always start cooking the rice. If you have a rice cooker started now so that you're ready to eat. When the curry sauce is done, I cook rice in a wannabe pots or pressure cooker. You can, of course, cook it with a regular pot. Now let's cut the Carol in do bite size pieces, you don't need to worry how they're cut. Just make sure they're about the same size, so they will be evenly cooked. Then have the onion into slices about half a names thick. Cut the potatoes into slightly bigger pieces than the carrots because carrots take longer to cook. Next, cut the pork into queues. That's it for the preparation.
3. Sauteing and Stewing: The first step is to warm up a little bit of olive all in a pot and brown the pork. I've got it over medium heat that pork doesn't need to be well cooked just until they start to brown. When they are done, take them out and in the same pot wome up a level again. And Saturday, the minced garlic and ginger again could get over a medium heat. But please lower it if the pot gets too hot in order to avoid burning the ingredients. Now I'm going to cook my onion and saute it until it is translucent. Well said Aid. Onion gives curry the rich taste. Let's add carrots and potatoes in and set a for another two minutes, then pour in the water and bring it to boil. Once it starts to boil, please skim the layer that forms on the surface with your ladle thistles. Another tip to make a savory curry. When the surface layer is removed, simmered the soup until the veggies are cooked. It will take about 10 to 15 minutes. I'm gonna take one piece of Kara and dictator and check if they're cooked.

It smells like Japanese curry now. Now turn the heat back on and let it simmer for another 10 minutes or so. I always keep the heat low and occasionally Sterritt a curry so that it won't stick to the bottom of the pot. Now is the time to at some secret ingredients too deep in the taste. I always add one tablespoon of soy SOS, one tablespoon of kitchen, one tablespoon of boost, esos and some honey, the's optional and that curry will taste good without them. Just try whatever you want and see how you like it. Now let's take a look at the texture of the curry. It looks great. This is the texture you want. If you're curry, looks too watery at this point. Then just add additional room but one piece at a time and check the consistency.
5. Let's Serve: it's time to eat. Turn off the heat and in your deep plate of all, serve the rice and pour the curry on it.
