I think the best one that they ever made is called Yokohama Hakuraitei curry. Quite expencive to buy but it's worth it ! I also make curry with mince meat and potao onion carrot, dice all in same size about 15mm. First fry chopped garlic and add meat salt and pepper then carrot onion potato. Add water just to cover ingredients. cook little very quick they cook because all the vege is small cube. off heat to add curry block. Add 1 tea spoon each of soy sauce, tomato sauce, barbecue sauce, shot of coffee and a tea spoon strawberry jam. Chop onion fine and sprincle over hot rice and serve curry. Fine chopped raw onion on rice is so nice with curry 😋
I make my own curry roux rather than use the store bought. Infinitely better. I've been experimenting with addons. I usually go with apple and honey for a safe dish but I've also tried subbing in chocolate (which is nice) and coffee (which is less nice because I can't stand coffee but it was recommended that I try it at least once).
I am Japanese and I recommend this recipe. I was fed up with different youtubers and people from overseas who have probably never had real Japanese-style curry and uploaded someone's degraded copy of the recipe. Actually, Japanese-style curry is very easy to make if you use curry roux. All you have to do is boil vegetables and meat in water and add curry roux. The curry roux contains not only spices and flour, but also all the secret ingredients, bouillon, stock, etc., so basically you don't need to add anything. The first thing you do is simply eat this. This is basic Japanese-style curry. If it is not enough, you can add a small amount of spices and secret ingredients to your liking the next time you make it yourself.
Thanks so much for the comments and your feedback! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video - and I agree, Japanese curry is so easy to make and tastes delicious!
It is exactly like what I had in Japan. Lived there for 4 years.i hate when people ruin te recipe. And yes I can make it from scratch without that little box
@@carolynlacrockett7284 please, yes! Generally whenever you cook asian food, you can basically always swap out the water with dashi or beef/chicken stock, always adds amazing flavors. Adding stock and msg is instantly a huge upgrade
Yep, been our family favorite for over 40 years, and now passed on to my children. Golden Curry forever! When we use beef, I usually stew the beef first because it takes a long time for it to actually become tender, then add the carrots because they take longer to cook than the potatoes and onions. Once all tender, I remove it all from the pot, then sautee the onions. Once translucent, I add back all the rest, check for tenderness, then add the roux to finish. That way I don't end up with chewy beef and mushy potatoes and onions.
@denisebolanos7006 not for your typical American stew meat, we prefer bigger chunks (about an inch square). Sometimes I'll brown and cook in a pressure cooker for 15 minutes, remove the lid and finish everything in the pot.
After watching so many anime and Japanese people eating curry, I finally decided to make it to see what the hype was about. Let me just say- it tasted better than I ever imagined. This recipe is A+.
@@toastyapron I wish I followed the instruction to cut the potatoes into huge chunks. I made them half of what you said and most of them disintregated while cooking 😆
Golden Curry is my favorite brand. The medium heat is probably the best overall flavor. Its just hot enough to warm your tongue without making you grab the water or sweat profusely.
All five heat levels are pretty much the same. Hardly any different. The Japanese usually have low tolerance to spiciness but otherwise it's hardly noticeable by people otherwise. I add two whole dry red chilli peppers, and a nice pinch of white pepper in addition to the existing spiciness level 5 box which just seems too mellow for my tastes.
@@Brad933 😄 it's impossible to tell the difference between 1 & 3 as well. I only bought a 3 once in my life because they had no other in stock. S&B is the one true professional for this product.
I was first served this dish in a hotel in northern Hokkaido in January of 1992. I was flabbergasted by how good it was. I was a Marine at the time (we were on a "courtesy tour" of the island after spending two weeks cross-training with the JSDF 6th Infantry at Bihoro) and I was not expecting anything like this when we walked into the hotel's restaurant. I'll probably be crucified for saying this because I'm from Texas, but... I prefer it over Texas BBQ -- which I love. Yeah, it's that good. I could live on this stuff.
It's such a comforting food. And so good even the next day. I use the golden curry brand. I use mild cause I have children and they don't like anything super hot. I love it so much.
Texan here…I LOVE Texas BBQ as well and would eat this before I eat the BBQ. Japanese curry is one of the best dishes I’ve ever had. It is a surprisingly delicious food hug. Sounds weird but a hug in a bowl is the best way I can describe it. Lol
I made this tonight. Glad I found this recipe, the added flavours for sweetness were perfect. I used chicken stock instead of water and added a dash of fish sauce along with cumin and coriander powder. Was delicious!
I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed it! Thanks for giving this a try and for sharing your experience - your substitutions sound great, I'll give those a try sometime!
Thank you. After moving out of my parent's place and now having my own space to cook. I followed your video last night and had the best curry rice of my life. I never thought I could make it, but I did thanks to you.
That's great to hear! I'm so glad you enjoyed it - when I first moved out on my own, finding simple recipes like this that I could batch prep for a few days was a big game changer. Thanks for watching!
I knew that the curry in Japanese restaurants always tasted sweeter than what I made at home. Now I know what to add! And I have all the ingredients, so it’s curry night 😋
I grew up making curry rice using pork as it was cheap and easy. We also use ground beef which is easy as well. I never put it side by side with rice though. We just put it on top of a bowl of rice. In the winter its the best and tastes even better the next day. Try using half medium and half hot curry blocks and its wonderful.
Pork is a great substitute for beef, for sure! I love having this dish during the fall and wintertime; it warms up the tummy in an instant :) I'll have to give the half medium and half hot combination a try sometime, thanks so much for the suggestion and for watching!
I can't tell you how pleased I am to find a review of my all time favorite dish! I first tried Golden Curry about fifty years ago in my college days. I never lost touch with a place to buy it and love to make it just as the recipe instructs. I use chicken and I cut my carrots thinner so they soften quicker. I am a 78 year old bachelor and use half a package and I will definitely try the new add-ons recommended. Thanks again!
Amazing! I'm so happy to hear that - it's crazy how long Golden Curry has been around for, and how it has stayed as relevant and as popular today as it has been for decades. I'm glad to hear you'll be trying it with the add-in's - I'd love to hear how it turns out for you! Thanks so much for watching!
I have made the curry from this video a number of times now. It turns out good every time. I have tried the curry with and without the extra ingredients. The curry is still delicious without the extra ingredients, but it is even more delicious with the extra ingredients. I personally like to simmer the beef for an hour and forty minutes before adding the potatoes, carrots, and onions. It makes the beef so tender. I just make sure when I do, that I use six cups of water instead of five because a lot will evaporate. Also, I only have 3.2 oz roux packets at my store, and I have been using 6.5 oz instead of 8 and it’s still turning out pretty good :)
I just followed this recipe and it was so good. Not spicy at all, but it was really flavourful. I only had the 3.2 oz curry packet, so I added a bit of cornstarch mixed with water to thicken up the curry. It turned out amazing and tasted so good.
I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed it, and that it turned out great for you! Great call using a bit of cornstarch slurry to thicken it up, it's such an easy little fix 😀 Thanks for giving it a try and for the comment!
I make this frequently. I do it slightly different though. I really get some good browning on the beef. Then I cook the onions as instructed adding the garlic right before the onions are done. Then I add the water, ketchup and Worcestershire just to barley cover the meat. I also add a teaspoon of better than bouillon beef. Then I cover it and cook the meat until almost tender. Then I add the veggies and cook until almost done then add the curry cubes. I don't add the apple until the very end so if has a fresher apple taste. I also sometimes add a tablespoon of rice wine vinegar. But this is so good it doesn't really matter how you cook it
Thanks for sharing your experiences and tips! You're absolutely right - it's such a delicious and easy dish that no matter how you make it, it'll come out just great!
Personally, I love using pork in my curry. I also like to cook it either in the slow cooker or the Dutch oven, because that slow-cook taste is fantastic. Last time I made it, I subbed water for chicken stock, which gave it a nice savory flavor. Now I have to try the honey/apple/Worcestershire/ketchup combo!
Clear instructions that have worked perfectly. I was glad to find the same Golden Curry in Stockholm shops. This is perfect for two days of dinner meals. Thank you.
That's great to hear! I'm glad you were able to find Golden Curry where you live, it's a staple in my kitchen for an easy and delicious dinner. Thanks so much for watching!
@@maracuconu9587 Hi, there's the Asian Supermarket just off of Sveavägen, underground station Hötorget, downtown. The store that has the broadest selection of Japanese foods is called the Japanese Food Kitchen on Södermalm, close to the commuter train station called Stockholm Söder. I hope you have a wonderful stay in Stockholm!
@@maracuconu9587 The Japanese Food Kitchen (known as JFK) is where several varieties of the curry can be found. It's on Södermalm, close to the Swedenborg entrance of the commuter train station. Also the curry is available at the Asian Supermarket, Högtorget, downtown. Enjoy Stockholm!
I heard somewhere that Vermont curry (brand) is better than Golden since it already has a taste of apple and honey. I've recently been introduced to Japanese curry and started craving for it, so I'll definitely try this recipe.
Vermont definitely has a lot of fans as well! I personally like adding my own fresh apples and honey, as opposed to having those flavours already part of the curry roux - but Vermont certainly adds convenience if that's important! Thanks for watching and hope you enjoy making the recipe :)
In Australia you can get this at most sushi takeaways but the curry sauce, onions, carrots, potatoes and garlic is blended in to a smooth sauce and poured over crumbed chicken pieces and rice, with some pickled ginger. It delicious either way chunky or smooth. Yummy 👍
Oh that's so interesting! I've never tried blending the ingredients beforehand like that before but I'll have to give it a try sometime - thanks for sharing that interesting tidbit!
@@toastyapron I've never tried it with beef and not blended lol 👍 same to you I'll have to give this one a go haha 🙂 That's what I love about food and cooking, the same thing done differently can be amazing 🙂
For the best result possible I suggest to cook meat, potatoes and carrots each separate to the perfect texture, cool done carrots and potatoes under cool water. Store everything in the fridge and only mix at the end. Also for the potatoes boil them with a little bit of winegar and you don't need to know what type of potatoes you use. For the meat just boil it for about 2-3 hours until really tender in water+ salt... You will get tender meat +stock... You don't need to sear the meat, the curry will cover it anyway. I used 3 shallots instead of onions and garlic. I used a wine + corn starch reduction instead of worstercher sauce. You can make the roux and the Ketchup at home really easy. Every tbsp is 15g, 5 cups are 1 liter or 1kg or 1000g, just make it more since you can use it for the rice and also freeze your stock. Still a perfect base recipe.
I've tried this recipe using Kokumaro Curry Roux and it tastes amazing! Those 4 secret ingredients really made a difference! I will cook this again using Golden Curry next time. Thank you for sharing this recipe! 🙂
I totally agree, it's such a great warm and cozy meal for these colder months! Thanks so much for watching - I'm glad you're still enjoying it to this day!
I highly recommend using around 5 ounces of curry roux. Some Golden Curry are sold in 3.4oz boxes, and following the rest of this recipe (5 cups of stock/water) it will end up good but slightly lacking in curry flavor for my preference. I think using 7-8 ounces (larger boxes) would result in something a bit overpowering and super salty.
just made this a few days ago, its so easy and I make this fairly regularly and cheap too. id say the only difference is that I cut my vegetables a lot smaller and use pork instead of beef usually but you can pretty much use anything.
Even folks in my house who don't like curry loved this! I made it without meat and was missing the Worcestershire sauce but it was still fabulous, especially adding the honey, ketchup and apple. Delicious with rice 😋.
Amazing to hear that your family enjoyed this, even though they aren't necessarily big fans of curry! It's truly a dish that everyone can enjoy. Thanks for sharing!
I made this and ate some just now!! Wow that is so yummy! Thank you for this recipe. I added some spring onion on the top of my curry and used beef mince instead of chunks.. Also could only find the curry in medium hot and it was quite mild as far as spice goes. Sooo yummy
Thanks so much for watching! Spring onion is definitely a classic topping; and minced beef is a great choice too. Yes the spice level is generally milder in Japanese curry than it is for other types of curry; but I guess it also depends on the individual person's tolerance for heat :) Thanks so much again!
Second time making this, once without the extras for the sauce and once with it, and it makes all the difference, never knew it was this simple! Thank you so much for this video
Thank you so much for the support, and for the kind words! I really appreciate it and am glad you enjoyed watching, and found it helpful and easy to follow!
I never comment on TH-cam videos. This was literally the best thing I have ever put in my mouth. The whole house smelled amazing and my very very picky two year old loved I it. That was the biggest shocker. This was so easy to follow, and my Filipino husband was very impressed. I will be saving this recipe and making it again and again. You earned a like and subscribe from me tonight for sure 🤣
That's so amazing to hear! I'm so glad you and your family enjoyed it so much, and hope you'll enjoy it on repeat for years to come. Thanks for giving it a try and for the support!
I cooked this today!!!!! It's so delicious!!!!!!!! Thank you for this simple but yummy recipe! The beef took a while to soften so i continued to simmer it for about 40 mins. I don't mind that the carrots and potatoes got softer coz that was perfect for me. Don't forget to stir occasionally to avoid burning the bottom of the pot!
i really love this video. i’ve come back time and time again! this video is comforting to me! thank you for breaking it down and making it really easy. it means a lot ❤
Just made this, amazing. Made with the bonus ingredients you suggested and it turned out absolutely so freaking good. Have never had this at a restaurant but can't imagine it turning out better. Thanks for this, and very well done video by the way. Liked and subscribed.
Amazing! Thanks so much for watching and for the support, I appreciate it! I'm glad you enjoyed the recipe - it really is restaurant quality (in my opinion) with how good it tastes, yet how simple and easy it is to make at home.
I'm making this curry now for tomorrow as it will taste better the next day ...but it tastes awesome already ...thanks for the recipe and video ...BRAVO !
Thanks again for the kind comment! I'm so glad you're enjoying everything - and hope you enjoy giving it a try at home! Would love to hear how it turns out for you!
@DeenDonna In my experience, it freezes great! I portion 1 serving into each bag/container and thaw it whenever I'm ready to re-heat and enjoy, while extending the shelf life!
@@toastyapron yes, individual! I don’t think I have to worry about that this time around. I had it for breakfast and lunch and can’t wait for supper 😄 thanks again!
I made this for dinner tonight with the extra added secret ingredients. It came out so delicious. The best Japanese curry I’ve ever had. Thank you for sharing your recipe. ❤
@@toastyapron no, you made it easy for us. I hate online recipe because long and complicated and they don’t even tell you the secret ingredients. So props to you! Keep making amazing recipes!!!
I love curry dishes and I have had Vietnamese, Thai, Indian, and Japanese. The thing is I always hesitate to make them myself because I don’t have enough patience and confidence but your video for the Japanese Curry Rice makes it easy to follow.👍🍛
Thanks so much for the kind comment! I'm so glad the video helped and that you found it easy to follow. I always find that the more times I make a recipe, the easier it gets each time. Good luck and enjoy!
I found this video last fall. I've made this recipe probably 8 times since! It's so delicious! Currently got it on the stove now. I always come back to reference this video! thanks for sharing the recipe!
That's awesome to hear! I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much (enough to repeat it 8 times!) - it's such a delicious dish that's always a classic. Thanks for sharing and for watching!
That's awesome! I'm so glad you enjoyed it and found it easy to make 😀 It's a recipe I always love recommending to beginner cooks. Thanks for giving it a try!
Ive made this dish several times now and its one of my wife's most looked forward to meals! Thanks for the great simple recipe I dont know how anyone can mess this up! 😅
Thank you for sharing your recipe it’s so simple to make.Some you tubers are not precise on simple stuff it makes more complicated.This recipe I will definitely follow.I recently visit Japan and I love the curry .
I just came across your channel and it's fantastic! You explain things without getting off topic, your voice is very easy to listen to and the background music doesn't over power it. I've seen these boxes of curry roux for years. I am going to buy some today and cook this for tonight's dinner 🤤
Thank you so much for the kind words! I really appreciate them and your support, and am so glad you enjoy the videos. Enjoy the curry rice dinner tonight!!
Followed this recipe but changed a few things. 1. I let the entire thing cook for two hours. 2. The onions simmered into the liquid and thickened the gravy to the point they were gone. 3. Subbed apple for two tablespoons of applesauce. The dish was excellent. But not even comparable to the following day. It was not kidding 10x better the following day.
I love this recipe, it's simple enough for me to learn in a short amount of time. I've been following it for a year now and my curry hasn't disappointed my parents 😊
I do like this, first use previous day rice and put it in a pan until it's crispy at medium heat. For the curry, onion at low heat until it's translucid, potatoes and carrot added later and cooked at medium heat 2 min and then add 2/3 of glass of water with little soy sauce and some dashi powder stock and mix. Cutlet is fried on the side and cut and put over the rice. Once the potato is not too raw and not too well done, TURN OFF the heat and add ONE CUBE of curry and mix it together, if the mixture is too liquid just add a little bit of corn starch, not too much. This is a recipe for 1 portion.
Amazing! That sounds incredible - I've yet to try it in this recipe but now I'm going to have to, I love pork belly! Thanks for sharing and for watching!
Sounds delicious! I will be looking for Japanese curry roux at my local Japanese grocery store. I will be using tofu instead of beef and adding some mushrooms for my vegetarian daughter-in-law.
Amazing! It's such an easy, simple and tasty dish especially as we creep into those chillier months. I hope the recipe turns out great for you - good luck and thanks for watching!
Plain curry is delicious just on its own as well, even without the flavour enhancers! I'm glad you enjoyed it - thanks so much for watching and for giving it a try!
The veggies are on the boil right now using Hot Golden Curry. Will add baked, chicken piecestowards the end. So looking forward to trying it. Thanks for the EXTRA sauce. ❤🇨🇦❤🇨🇦
Just made it. Fantastic I took the hot curry box. And I love it! Not for everyone might be too spicy, also I used chicken but still turned out Fantastic
@mierezsaturday1452 Thank you so much for saying that! It means a lot that those little details are noticed and appreciated, and that viewers like yourself find value in them. I appreciate your support!
First time doing Japanese curry and honestly it's delecious i love the sweet taste that it leves in your mouth also it's cheap to make and most of the igridiants are bound to be in your house

Thanks for sharing your experiences and tips! You're absolutely right - it's such a delicious and easy dish that no matter how you make it, it'll come out just great!
THE BEST QUICK curry recipe I've tried (4th one). Thnx!
Thanks for the kind words, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Personally, I love using pork in my curry. I also like to cook it either in the slow cooker or the Dutch oven, because that slow-cook taste is fantastic. Last time I made it, I subbed water for chicken stock, which gave it a nice savory flavor. Now I have to try the honey/apple/Worcestershire/ketchup combo!
Clear instructions that have worked perfectly. I was glad to find the same Golden Curry in Stockholm shops. This is perfect for two days of dinner meals. Thank you.
That's great to hear! I'm glad you were able to find Golden Curry where you live, it's a staple in my kitchen for an easy and delicious dinner. Thanks so much for watching!
Hej! Do you remember the store where you found it? My boyfriend lives in Stockholm and I want to cook him this dish when I come visit ❤️
@@maracuconu9587 Hi, there's the Asian Supermarket just off of Sveavägen, underground station Hötorget, downtown.
The store that has the broadest selection of Japanese foods is called the Japanese Food Kitchen on Södermalm, close to the commuter train station called Stockholm Söder. I hope you have a wonderful stay in Stockholm!
@@maracuconu9587 The Japanese Food Kitchen (known as JFK) is where several varieties of the curry can be found. It's on Södermalm, close to the Swedenborg entrance of the commuter train station. Also the curry is available at the Asian Supermarket, Högtorget, downtown. Enjoy Stockholm!
Even without the special ingredients it still tastes so good.
Thank you for the recipe.
Thanks so much for watching!
I heard somewhere that Vermont curry (brand) is better than Golden since it already has a taste of apple and honey. I've recently been introduced to Japanese curry and started craving for it, so I'll definitely try this recipe.
Vermont definitely has a lot of fans as well! I personally like adding my own fresh apples and honey, as opposed to having those flavours already part of the curry roux - but Vermont certainly adds convenience if that's important! Thanks for watching and hope you enjoy making the recipe :)
Yep. Both Vermont and Java are better than Golden.
This guy knows whats he cooking, a big thumbs up. 😊😊👍👍
Appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
In Australia you can get this at most sushi takeaways but the curry sauce, onions, carrots, potatoes and garlic is blended in to a smooth sauce and poured over crumbed chicken pieces and rice, with some pickled ginger.
It delicious either way chunky or smooth. Yummy 👍
Oh that's so interesting! I've never tried blending the ingredients beforehand like that before but I'll have to give it a try sometime - thanks for sharing that interesting tidbit!
@@toastyapron I've never tried it with beef and not blended lol 👍 same to you I'll have to give this one a go haha 🙂
That's what I love about food and cooking, the same thing done differently can be amazing 🙂
@@toastyapronplease do a video on it.
Thank you for diner idea tonight!
You've just described Chicken Katsu Curry perfectly
For the best result possible I suggest to cook meat, potatoes and carrots each separate to the perfect texture, cool done carrots and potatoes under cool water. Store everything in the fridge and only mix at the end. Also for the potatoes boil them with a little bit of winegar and you don't need to know what type of potatoes you use. For the meat just boil it for about 2-3 hours until really tender in water+ salt... You will get tender meat +stock... You don't need to sear the meat, the curry will cover it anyway. I used 3 shallots instead of onions and garlic. I used a wine + corn starch reduction instead of worstercher sauce. You can make the roux and the Ketchup at home really easy. Every tbsp is 15g, 5 cups are 1 liter or 1kg or 1000g, just make it more since you can use it for the rice and also freeze your stock. Still a perfect base recipe.
Thanks for sharing your feedback!
Hmm that's a lot more work though. Can the stew shown in the video be frozen or am I better off halving all ingredients and keeping it in the fridge?
Wow - I just remembered my time in Guam & Japan and how much I loved the Japanese curry. Made this tonight! Thanks for the tutorial.
That's awesome! I'm so glad it brought back memories and that you enjoyed making it at home! Thanks for watching :)
Does it taste similar to what you had in Japan and Guam?
I've made it twice now, and it's awesome. I tried the medium heat Golden Curry and the mild one-both are very good.
That's awesome to hear, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for giving it a try!
I've tried this recipe using Kokumaro Curry Roux and it tastes amazing! Those 4 secret ingredients really made a difference! I will cook this again using Golden Curry next time. Thank you for sharing this recipe! 🙂
I'm so glad to hear that you enjoyed it! Thanks for sharing and for watching!
10/10 i made this for dinner tonight and my family loves it will 100% make it again
That's amazing to hear! I'm so glad you and your family enjoyed it!
Going to cook it now for the first time! Thank you for helping
You're very welcome, I hope you enjoy it!
I did it in the beginning of the year and I loved it, its perfect for cozy weather, I'm still making it till this day
I totally agree, it's such a great warm and cozy meal for these colder months! Thanks so much for watching - I'm glad you're still enjoying it to this day!
I highly recommend using around 5 ounces of curry roux. Some Golden Curry are sold in 3.4oz boxes, and following the rest of this recipe (5 cups of stock/water) it will end up good but slightly lacking in curry flavor for my preference. I think using 7-8 ounces (larger boxes) would result in something a bit overpowering and super salty.
just made this a few days ago, its so easy and I make this fairly regularly and cheap too. id say the only difference is that I cut my vegetables a lot smaller and use pork instead of beef usually but you can pretty much use anything.
Thanks for watching, I'm glad you enjoy it as much as I do!
Even folks in my house who don't like curry loved this! I made it without meat and was missing the Worcestershire sauce but it was still fabulous, especially adding the honey, ketchup and apple. Delicious with rice 😋.
Amazing to hear that your family enjoyed this, even though they aren't necessarily big fans of curry! It's truly a dish that everyone can enjoy. Thanks for sharing!
I made this and ate some just now!! Wow that is so yummy! Thank you for this recipe. I added some spring onion on the top of my curry and used beef mince instead of chunks.. Also could only find the curry in medium hot and it was quite mild as far as spice goes. Sooo yummy
Thanks so much for watching! Spring onion is definitely a classic topping; and minced beef is a great choice too. Yes the spice level is generally milder in Japanese curry than it is for other types of curry; but I guess it also depends on the individual person's tolerance for heat :) Thanks so much again!
Second time making this, once without the extras for the sauce and once with it, and it makes all the difference, never knew it was this simple! Thank you so much for this video
Awesome to hear that! The flavour enhancers definitely add a different dimension to the recipe, I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
This has recently become one of my favorite recipes. I've made it with beef, chicken and even pork and I can't get enough of it. Thank you!
Amazing to hear that you've enjoyed it over and over again with different protein variations! Thanks so much for watching!
I really like your videos and how easy the recipes are to follow ( I’m a total beginner) ! I hope to see more videos from you!
Thank you so much for the support, and for the kind words! I really appreciate it and am glad you enjoyed watching, and found it helpful and easy to follow!
I never comment on TH-cam videos. This was literally the best thing I have ever put in my mouth. The whole house smelled amazing and my very very picky two year old loved I it. That was the biggest shocker. This was so easy to follow, and my Filipino husband was very impressed. I will be saving this recipe and making it again and again. You earned a like and subscribe from me tonight for sure 🤣
That's so amazing to hear! I'm so glad you and your family enjoyed it so much, and hope you'll enjoy it on repeat for years to come. Thanks for giving it a try and for the support!
Amazing recipee, super easy, anyone could make it.
The portion is so generous I've even ran out of rice to eat with.
Thanks so much for the comment! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! It's definitely a generous portion - which means it great for meal prep!
I have been using your recipe for quite some time now. I have your youtube link saved as well. Thank you so much ❤
Amazing! Thanks so much for the support - I'm so glad you enjoyed this yummy dish!
I cooked this today!!!!! It's so delicious!!!!!!!! Thank you for this simple but yummy recipe!
The beef took a while to soften so i continued to simmer it for about 40 mins. I don't mind that the carrots and potatoes got softer coz that was perfect for me. Don't forget to stir occasionally to avoid burning the bottom of the pot!
Awesome to hear! Thanks for giving the recipe a try - I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
i really love this video. i’ve come back time and time again! this video is comforting to me! thank you for breaking it down and making it really easy. it means a lot ❤
You're very welcome! Thanks so much for the kind words, I'm glad you found it helpful and comforting to watch!
As a non-Japanese, I camne across this dish in one piece and it is downright similar to the apple. I am amazed.
Awesome to hear! Thanks for watching!
Just made this, amazing. Made with the bonus ingredients you suggested and it turned out absolutely so freaking good. Have never had this at a restaurant but can't imagine it turning out better. Thanks for this, and very well done video by the way. Liked and subscribed.
Amazing! Thanks so much for watching and for the support, I appreciate it! I'm glad you enjoyed the recipe - it really is restaurant quality (in my opinion) with how good it tastes, yet how simple and easy it is to make at home.
I'm making this curry now for tomorrow as it will taste better the next day ...but it tastes awesome already ...thanks for the recipe and video ...BRAVO !
...it was excellent the next day ...we all loved it here ! Nice one

@@toastyapron it is fantastic! So flavorful and wholesome! How well does it freeze, do you know?
@DeenDonna In my experience, it freezes great! I portion 1 serving into each bag/container and thaw it whenever I'm ready to re-heat and enjoy, while extending the shelf life!
@@toastyapron yes, individual! I don’t think I have to worry about that this time around. I had it for breakfast and lunch and can’t wait for supper 😄 thanks again!
I made this for dinner tonight with the extra added secret ingredients. It came out so delicious. The best Japanese curry I’ve ever had. Thank you for sharing your recipe. ❤

Was it spicy
@@turtlegaming6188 not at all, there are no spicy ingredients in the recipe
I love curry dishes and I have had Vietnamese, Thai, Indian, and Japanese. The thing is I always hesitate to make them myself because I don’t have enough patience and confidence but your video for the Japanese Curry Rice makes it easy to follow.👍🍛

This was absolutely bussin. Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Followed this recipe but changed a few things.
1. I let the entire thing cook for two hours.
2. The onions simmered into the liquid and thickened the gravy to the point they were gone.
3. Subbed apple for two tablespoons of applesauce.
The dish was excellent. But not even comparable to the following day. It was not kidding 10x better the following day.
Yes! Great point about next-day leftovers - I agree, they always taste even better the next day (esp. this dish)! 😀
😌❤ Made it, and it’s just delicious……..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you ♥️

I love and want japanese curry rice 😋🥰😍😘
I hope you enjoy giving this a try!
I tried and it tastes incredible! Thanks 🙏🏽
Awesome to hear you enjoyed it so much! Thanks for watching and for giving it a try!
I do like this, first use previous day rice and put it in a pan until it's crispy at medium heat. For the curry, onion at low heat until it's translucid, potatoes and carrot added later and cooked at medium heat 2 min and then add 2/3 of glass of water with little soy sauce and some dashi powder stock and mix. Cutlet is fried on the side and cut and put over the rice. Once the potato is not too raw and not too well done, TURN OFF the heat and add ONE CUBE of curry and mix it together, if the mixture is too liquid just add a little bit of corn starch, not too much. This is a recipe for 1 portion.
Thanks for sharing and for watching!
