Description

Japanese curry is a rich, flavorful dish featuring a thick, savory sauce with a hint of sweetness served over rice. Made using Japanese curry roux, tender meat, and vegetables like potatoes, carrots, and onions, it’s a comforting and hearty meal.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 potato, diced
  • 2 large carrots, diced
  • 2 cup mushrooms (any type is fine, but I recommend shiitake, enoki, or shimeji)
  • 1 lb chicken breasts or thighs (about 2 chicken breasts)
  • 6-8 oz. Japanese curry roux
  • 5.4 cup water
  • 8 servings rice (I recommend Japanese short-grain or medium grain for the most authentic Japanese experience!)

Instructions

  1. In a large pot over medium heat, drizzle some olive oil. Add the mushrooms and chicken, cooking until the chicken is fully cooked through.
  2. Add the potatoes, carrots, and water to the pot. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil, cooking until the potatoes and carrots are tender.
  3. Stir in the curry mix until fully combined. Adjust the water to your desired level of thickness.
  4. Serve the curry on top of rice and enjoy!
