How to Make Homemade Japanese Curry Roux (Recipe) カレールーの作り方 (レシピ)
Yum! And for lazy people like me: If you toast the flower in the pan first and then add melted butter, it takes about half the time to make roux and is less likely to have any raw flour lumps missed.
Nice tip 😄
How long do you toast the flour?
Do you keep stirring it with the whisk while it toasts?
@@RexyFanyou'll know when it's done it becomes more free and a Lil bit yellowish brown
@@RexyFan Generally, it depends on the amount of mixture and the color of the roux you're aiming. There are 4 colors of roux; white, blonde, light and dark brown. The darker the flavorful.
but, if you toast the flour, then wouldn't it just replace the time lost when making the roux?
Bake the flour on a cookie sheet to the color you are looking for before mixing and you will reduce the stovetop cooking time to a few minutes. You can even save the cooked flour for a couple weeks if you keep it in the freezer. It's an old Cajun technique.
How many temps do you recommend to cook the flour?
The great thing about these kinds of roux blocks is you can add them to any soup or stew to thicken it up and add curry flavor, and they keep forever in the freezer.
While I was watching Joshua Weissman's incredibly chaotic video on Japanese curry I was wondering if you'd done one. This is so much better on so many levels!! Thank you!
Aww thank you Rebecca! I have to see who you're talking about now. 😃
How does this version taste compared to the actual Japanese curry blocks you buy from supermarkets/Asian grocer ?
@@RexyFan Should be way better. Curry blocks already use the spice mix in the video (S&B) but are made with cheaper oils, here she uses butter and you get to control how good the better is (e.g. organic grass-fed butter) as well as how spicy it is (I like it very spicy)
I love how you showed us the progress of cooking the roux. Arigato!
I've always loved curry roux blocks when I make my curry. I saw this video and knew I needed to watch! I am pleasantly shocked at how simple it is though. Thank you for the storage tips on your website!
Thank you Montana! It's not "exactly" same but I'd say it's close. If you look at the box of curry roux, it's a bit scary so many ingredients are very unfamiliar stuff... Hope you enjoy making your curry! S&B curry powder has been around (and first introduced!) and we are all familiar with this curry taste. So it's closest you can get when it comes to homemade.
@@justonecookbook thanks for the recipe! I will try, the curry in Argentina is kind of expensive.. like 100 dollars u.u
@@justonecookbook I think that commercial roux we normally buy has fruit/chutney added as it has a sweet base flavor, Thanks for the tutorial.
Yikes. The audio.
Probably the best tutorials about Japanese food on TH-cam... Thank you so much for this!! 🙏
Thank you for your kind words!
カレーのルーがお家で作れるなんて感激しました。
近所のスーパーでカレーパウダーが簡単に手に入るので作ってみたいと思います。
ところでこちらルイジアナでは茶色のルーを作る時油と粉を混ぜオーブンに入れます。低温で仕上げれば自分の好きなところで止めてこちらの料理に使います。たくさん作ってメイソンジャーに入れて保存します。
This is great. I used half the blocks last week and froze the other half and used them tonight. Thank you. Cant wait to try making more of your recipes.
I feel like I’ve hit the recipe jackpot following you. So excited to try all of your dishes out.
Thank you! I'm so happy! I have 900 recipes on the website (and I usually write more details for the blog posts). 🤗❤️
I've always wondered what magic that little cube is hiding. Now I know! I bet homemade tastes so much better.
Haha, I'd say if you look at the box of curry roux... lots of unfamiliar (chemical) ingredients that do the magic to the curry... but at least this homemade version is clean!
Yummmyyyy I remember eating curry every morning in Japan. It was my favorite thing I looked forward to in the mornings when I was there. That sounds weird, but I love savory breakfast and America leans towards sweet breakfasts.
Thank you!
Thank you so much for taking the time to create this video. I have had a hard time finding a recipe as simple as this that also accounts for gluten free needs. I just ordered the same curry powder that you used in the video and I am looking forward to trying this recipe out. Thank you again for all that you do!
Many of my GF readers have tried this recipe, so it should work! Hope you enjoy!!
The best thing about making your own curry bricks is that it binds better the broth and it thickens it right unlike other premade curry bricks that in order to thicken you need to add extra bicks or cornstarch. Loved this recipe!
I just watched a video on Bon Appetit in where the chef pretty much did this, but didn't brown the roux as long. I've never had Japanese curry, so I bought the box kind to see if I even like it. If I do I'm definitely going to try this method. Appreciate the simplicity.
This is awesome! Been craving Japanese curry but needed an alternative because I’m on a low-sodium diet and the packs they sell at the store have insane amounts of sodium in it. Thanks! 🤗
omg so glad I found this recipe. My siblings go through those store bought curry blocks like crazy and I was always wondering if I could save money & make it at home. I might try this with 1/2 butter substitute & 1/2 butter, as well as a mix of AP flour & fibergourmet flour
Now this is what I've trying to find for. Thanks for the video!
When I found your original homemade curry roux, it literally changed my world. 🙇🏻♂️🙇🏻♂️🙇🏻♂️
Aww thank you so much!!!!!!!! 🥰
So, those blocks are that simple? Wow. I will definitely use this
Hope you enjoy!
Thank you Nami! It’s impossible to get curry blocks in Turkey. I was making curry with curry powder but now I can use this. I’m so excited and can’t wait to make a curry!
Hope you enjoy!!! This makes it more like Japanese curry roux (minus additives and preservatives).
Buscaba un roux perfecto para una receta de curry y Hooooo que sorpresa más grata. Gracias por compartir estàs maravillas culinarias. Muchas, muchas gracias❤
I made this so many times with regular curry powder and it still tastes amazing
Wonderful!!
Thank you for the recipe! I needed to make a gluten-free version and tried it using rice flour and it turned out perfect.
So happy to hear that. Thank you for your kind feedback!
Amazing! I’m American and I love Golden Curry but now I can make it at home myself!
Hope you enjoy!
Thank you! I'm going to have to experiment with gluten free flour, but I'm excited to get closer to being able to make and enjoy one of my favorite curries again!
Hi Toni! Many of my readers have used gluten-free flour for this recipe and it worked. Hope you enjoy!
Thank you for making this video! I have always wanted to try this curry, but the boxed stuff I've found contains wheat. I never thought to make my own; I can't wait to make this gluten free!
Hope you enjoy!
But this recipe uses flour too though!! How is it gluten free?
@@sakurachristineito6428 You can use gluten free flour. Check the description of the vid
thank you! I'm allergic to wheat so I can't have the storebought blocks. now I can make my own and enjoy curry!
Can’t wait to try! Have used the store-bought all my life.
Hope you enjoy!
Thank you for this recipe. Very helpful.
Thank you for watching!
I love this! I've been following your recipes for quite sometime! Thank you!
It's also smart to fill a ice cube tray for perfect portions.
I can't believe it is so simple!
And all the chemical and additives free! 🤗
Merci pour ce partage, maintenant je les ferai moi même ❤
Konnichiwa JOC. Marc from Catalonia. I have followed your recipe, but with an added ingedient: green cardamom powder. It gives the paste that "Java" flavour. Thank you for sharing !!
Amazing! I thought it took more ingredients to make but the way you present this seems simple. I love curry food and I have the curry powder in my pantry ready to be used, thank you. 🤗❤
You can definitely spend a bit more time to make your own curry powder blend... but if you're used to Japanese curry, there is certain taste that people are familiar with, and S&B curry powder was the foundation of the Japanese curry culture, so it's a lot easier to just get this specific blend of curry powder and make your own roux with all the chemical and preservative free. :)
Awesome, I worry about the bad stuff in the boxed roux that I've used for years and now that you showed me I could make my own, we can start eating curry rice again! Thanks a million!
Hope you enjoy the recipe!
Thnks for the recipe I'm actually searching for roux lately
Oh wonderful! Hope you enjoy it!
I became a master o curry thanks to this channel. Thank u very much.
Aww thank you!! 😘🥰
I think ill try this next week!
🧡💛🧡 It looks so delicious. You're very good at cooking. That's a good recipe. wow good Information. 🧡💛🧡
Thank you for watching my video!
Thank you for the recipe! When I was little I was always so happy to suddenly smell that my mother was making Japanese curry for dinner. I make it now a few times each winter. I thought there would be garlic in the recipe like S&B. I will add a little ^.^
Thank you so much for making this video -- I'm going to make this tonight! :)
Hi, I’ve been wondering this for awhile. Since curry block only contain of flour, butter, curry, can I just put them all in my curry soup when boiling instead of making block like this?
Yum I will try it because This is not available in my country and I want to try Japanese Curry
I like how you made the curry roux. Lovely 😊
Thank you so much!
That looks amazing! And the recipe looks so simple too! You wouldn't happen to know how to make a Kokumaro curry roux, would you? I would love to make a lot of those at home, Kokumaro curry is my fav.
Wow its really amazing that even a curry can be this good! I love it! I thought it was always spicy but this look creamy! Definitely giving it a try! ❤
Hope you enjoy the recipe!
This looks so good!
Im gonna try it. Thanks. 😊
This looks so yummy. I'm going to try this
Hope you enjoy!
Thank you for the recipe!! The curry blocks available at my local supermarket have more cumin flavor in them than I would like... now I can make my own and perhaps cut back on that particular spice a little... yay! :)
Hope this works out for you! Enjoy!
I love your recipes !
Thank you Lidia! 🥰😘
thank you for sharing
Thank you for your receipt.
こんにちは
感動しました〜✨
ありがとうございます😊
ありがとう！
thank you so much for this-
i dont know why i never thought of home made but for years iv been annoyed that its not possible for me to get my hands on curry cubes
i love cooking and for the past 2 yrs or so iv been making allot of Asian foods and i fail making curry dishes more often than not
have a feeling this wil be a grate help !
Thank you for watching my channel! I hope you enjoy my recipes. 🤗
Terrific! Thank You!
Oohhh how lovely! I love Japanese Curry and we make it easily 4 to 6 times a month so this will be nice to make our own. ♡♡
Thank you Autumn! Hope you enjoy!
Will be making this soon can i use vegan butter as am a vegan i never had japanese curry roux before perfect for my after office meals with rice love your recipes making me hungry Thanks Ramya
It should work as long as it’s fat content is close to that of real butter.
@@nickdavis8881 will use coconut oil instead
Hope you enjoy!
Looks so good!
Thank you!
Brilliant!
Branded roux are not available in my country. But I wanted to make japanese curry. Thank you for the recipe
My pleasure 😊
So useful, Nami! I have a lot of butter to use and a lot of good curry, this is the perfect moment for this! Unfortunately, I have currently my dominant hand broken, so I'm thinking of trying with the Thermomix, I hope it turns out well. If you'd like, I'll let you know.
I'm sorry to hear about your hand. I had my shoulder surgery last year so I totally feel you!!! Wishing you fast recovery. I never used a Thermomix before. Hope it works!
@@justonecookbook thanks Nami! I just had surgery to my right wrist, I'm a cook and it's so bad not being able to.. well, do a lot of things. But having little projects as a distraction is good, I hope I'll be able to try this weekend :)
Wow I was looking for this recipe just yesterday thnx it's expensive to buy the authentic one
And free from all the unfamiliar (chemical) ingredients we can't pronounce. 😆
Nice to see you in your video show, what famous food and drink in japan?
I like how putting the roux paste in an ice cube tray is NOT an option... 😁😘
Looks great! Can't wait to try! What about conservation method? Do we keep it in the freezer? For how long?
Thanks for the recipe
1 month in the fridge or 2-3 months in the freezer. www.justonecookbook.com/how-to-make-curry-roux/
So cool!
Consulate General of Japan in Montreal brought me here - thx!
A tip if I may: I've never been able to get lump-free gravy by adding roux to liquid like it says to do in all the recipes. What works for me is to heat the roux to melting in a pan and gradually add slightly less than enough liquid to double the volume, and work that into the "roux lump" each time. repeated doublings will thin it out quite quickly, and working the liquid in each time to maintain a homogenous texture will result in one big lump that's so thin it passes for creamy lump-free gravy, and I never tell anybody. ;)
Very nice 👍🏻
Thank you!
@@justonecookbook is it weird that you like some curry dishes and some you do not or maybe I'm just weird 😂
Thanks for the recipe. One question however, does the brick once you take out from refrigerator, melt at room temperature or stay solid like those sold at the supermarket? Thanks
Wow I wish I saw this earlier, I ran out of cubes and just had to use plain curry powder 🥲🥺😭
Been on a really big curry kick as of lately, adding the store bought cubes to everything haha. Hopefully this will help me not have to make constant trips to the store all for some roux I can make myself now!
Hope you enjoy!!
I just bought a tin of S&B Curry Powder to make my own Japanese curry from scratch. Something about the store bought blocks makes the flavor unappetizing after one bowl. I'll have to give this a try
Hope you enjoy! And remember, you can always tweak the flavors if you like! 🤗
Thanks for sharing. Can I use unsalted butter and instead of making blocks, use these ingredients straight in the pot as I cook curry?
Ahhh had you postes it only one day earlier! I just bought a package yesterday..
Next time! 🤗
Thanks! Subscribed. Love golden curry but I couldn't eat it cause wheat.
Hope you try it with GF flour! Enjoy!
Elegant 👽
0sm excellent 💥👍⭐💯
Thank you!
Thank you so much for this! Now I can control the amount of sodium.
I enjoy these kinds of videos, so I subscribed. Your video is beautifully done and looks very delicious. Stay connected. :)
Nami, I think you and I are on the same wavelength this week. 2 days ago I was thinking about making curry with beef. I have never had curry before and want to give it a try. I ran across this recipe on your website today and I think I will have a go at it Monday when I'm off. I tried finding mild curry in the stores in my town; however, they only had hot. Any recommendations for someone who is new to curry? Any comments welcome from any one. Thanks. :)
You can make it homemade (this recipe) and it's not spicy. My kids can eat it, so should be okay. :)
Forgot to say I didn't add cayenne pepper.
@@justonecookbook Thanks. I have one ingredient in waiting on. S&B Curry Powder.
Thank you for this video. Noob question, why wouldnt you just add the ingredients used to make roux, directly to just make the curry? Would the taste profile be the same?
Because Japanese curry is made differently. In Indian cooking, for example, curry starts from the beginning. Japanese curry is more like a stew, so we add the roux after all the ingredients are cooked. Just different cooking method. :)
Great video. Can you suggest a fat other than butter?
Hello. Just tried this and when i mix the flour into the butter, it's really thick and not runny like this video.
Did you accurately measure the flour? I recommend using a scale for greater precision. Also, keep in mind that the process takes time, and it will become liquid after about 15 minutes of simmering. Hope this helps!
Looks like a great recipe! Thanks for the gluten free option. Also entering your rice cooker giveaway now :)
Hi! How do I adjust the recipe if I want to use fresh ginger and turmeric? I want to follow your curry powder recipe too.
Looks delicious! Do you have a gluten free recipe for those of us with Celiac?
Use GF flour. It will work! :)
Should I make this cubes When I make Japanese curry?? Or just toss all ingredients in the pot ???
Arigatougozaimasu!
Regards thanks for the cool
Thanks for watching!
How long are the curry blocks fresh in the fridge? Or can i even freeze them? 🙏🏻
You can store in the refrigerator for 1 month or in the freezer for 3-4 months.
@justonecookbook ありがとうございます✨
今日とても貴重な映像見させて頂きました。いつも市販のルーを買うと添加物や乳化剤が気になってました。早速自家製作ってみますね！ありがとうございます❣️
ぜひ！気に入ってももらえると嬉しいです。
こんにちは！いつもレシピ参考にさせて頂いてます。質問なんですが日本のカレーパウダーが手に入らない場合は海外のスーパーにある普通のカレーパウダーでも代用可でしょうか？
大丈夫ですよ！インドのカレーパウダーも使ったことあります。でもやっぱり日本のカレーのルーの味にしたかったら、S＆Bのパウダーあると、日本風のカレー味になります。
@@justonecookbook お忙しい中お返事ありがとうございます！近々アジアンストアで探してみます！もしなくても普通のカレーパウダーで挑戦してみます💪インフレで日本のカレールゥが高値になってきたのでスパイスで作れるレシピ本当に嬉しいです❤️
このvedioのためにどうもありがとうございました
Thank you so much for this!
カレールーって作りできるの知らなかったです！🤩 美味しそうですね！
カナダ在住なのでカレールーも種類によれば意外に高いので紹介してもらった方法の方が安ければ、試してみたいと思います。保存はどれくらいの期間できるか知りたいところです。ケチくてすみません。ありがとうございます！
冷凍庫なら２、３ヶ月。冷蔵庫なら１ヶ月ほど。S&Bのカレー粉で作ったら、結構ルーと似たような味です。私はガラムマサラとか入れて、ちょっとだけ香りを出したりしてますが。カレー粉が普通に買えれば、安いかも。あとは、箱に入ってる添加物ないという意味では、とても健康的です！
オリジナルの添加物なしのカレー魅力的です！
ご親切に、アドバイスありがとうございます♪😊
Great! ❤!
How long can I be keeping it at the freezer?
2-3 months! 🤗
@@justonecookbook Domou Domou! :))
