Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (500g) beef chuck steak, cubed
  • 2 onions, thinly sliced
  • 3 carrots, sliced into chunks
  • 2 potatoes, cubed
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 4 cups beef stock
  • 1 box (7 oz or 200g) Japanese curry roux (such as Golden Curry or Vermont Curry)
  • 2 cups cooked rice

Instructions

Heat it up

In a large pot, add vegetable oil over medium heat. Toss in the onions and sauté until golden and aromatic.

Brown the beef

Add in the beef chunks, cooking until browned on all sides. Get ready for those savory aromas!

Veggie time

Throw in the carrots and potatoes, mixing everything well for an even coat of flavor.

Pour and simmer

Add the beef stock and let it serenade the mixture. Bring it to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to a simmer for about 30 minutes, until the veggies are tender.

Curry magic

Break the curry roux into pieces and stir through the stew until it’s all melted and thickened. Let it cook for another 10 minutes. Mmm, can you smell that?

Serve it up

Spoon the luscious curry over a fluffy bed of cooked rice. Top with pickled ginger or parsley for extra flavor flair!

Notes

Storage

Leftover curry can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat before serving.

Substitutions

If beef chuck is unavailable, you can use other cuts like brisket or stew meat. Vegetarian options can include tofu or an assortment of vegetables.

Spice Level

The spice level of Japanese curry is mild compared to other curries. If you prefer more heat, consider adding chili flakes or serving with a spicy condiment.
