Did someone say, "Japanese curry?"
YES!
It's perfect for a family dinner at home, and great for meal prep too - the curry can last up to 3 days in the refrigerator & up to 2 weeks in the freezer :)
Serving: 5 pax
Ingredients:
- Beef
- 2 Onions
- 4 potatoes
- 4 carrots
- 1 garlic
- 3/4 tbsp honey
- 1 1/2 pack Vermont Curry paste
- 1 tbsp oil, for frying
- Water
Method:
1. Cut all the ingredients.
- Onion & garlic: sliced
- Carrots, potatoes, & beef: cut into cubes/smaller pieces
2. Pour some oil into a large pot and fry the garlic and onions until slightly brown.
3. Add the beef and fry until they are about 3/4 cooked. Then, add in approximately 4 cups of water, along with the carrots and potatoes.
4. Boil over medium heat for 15 minutes.
5. Then, add in the curry paste, starting from 1 pack. You can add in more according to your taste, but in my recipe, I used one and a half pack.
6. Cover with the lid and let it boil over medium heat for another 20 minutes; if you prefer harder meat, boil for only 10 minutes and if you prefer them to be more tender/soft, boil longer. *if you are using a non-stick pot, remember to stir occasionally when boiling, approx. every 5-10 minutes, to prevent the curry from sticking to the bottom of your pot.
7. The final step is to stir in about 3/4 tbsp of honey and taste-test.
You can adjust the amount of water & curry paste according to your taste - thick or light. Also, you can swap the beef with chicken.
When serving, add on a fried egg and some fresh cabbage.
P.S. for a healthier option, swap white rice with brown rice/purple rice. They taste great too!
and, you can use Udon noodles instead of rice too.
Great, isn't it? 1 pot of curry can make many types of dishes!
Hope you liked this recipe. :)
