โ COMMON QUESTIONS
Q: WHAT DOES JAPANESE CURRY TASTE LIKE?
A: Compared to Indian curry, I would say Japanese curry is less spicy but thicker and sweeter. And you can usually taste a little bit of a dashi-like flavor.
Q: HOW DO YOU MAKE JAPANESE CURRY THICKER?
A: You can add 1 tbsp of water and flour mix slurry, but I don’t recommend doing that. Even if it’s thin, as you simmer, it will be thicker and thicker and richer the next day; I think patience is mostly needed here.
Q: IS JAPANESE CURRY SPICY?
A: It depends on what kind of roux cubes you use. In Japan, there are usually three types and six levels.
โข Sweet (level 1-2)
โข Medium (level 3)
โข Hot (level 4,5,6)
The sweet one is kids friendly, so it’s pretty sweet and not spicy at all; on the other hand, the hot one is quite hot (by Japanese standards, anyway).

You may also try dark chocolate instead of coffee. It's an old French cooking trick.
That color is so appetizing. Going to the grocer tomorrow to hunt for curry.
The coffee at the end is very interesting, will be trying it out
This is incredibly similar to how I make curry, almost the same step by step. I add grated ginger at the same time as the garlic and butter. Haven't used Red Wine, but I really like that and will definitely try it next time.
V easy to make compared to Indian curry. My family has eaten chicken katsu before but not beef. I look forward to making this tonight. Thank u โค
thanks for sharing.
when I make Jap curry, I always add Worcestershire sauce, dark soy sauce, tomato ketchup, and honey.
Hey, I was just wondering which piece of beef you would recommend for this recipe?
Bruh speak normally
Hey im sure you wont see this but i was planning on using chuck roast should i wait to put the potatoes in and cook it longer to ensure tenderness? Also i was planning to use ginger, garlic, garamasala with a mix of beef and vegetable stock is that a good combo? ๐๐
Amazing! I had the most amazing homenade Kare Raisu in decades.
how many curry cubes to use when cooking for 2 people?
Thanks
That looks so delicious thank you for sharing this recipe ๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ผ๐
Add an apple, dark 100% cocoa chocolate bar, it gives a rather complex tasting that completes this dish โฏ๏ธ
Is there a reason you wait 20 minutes before adding the cubes? Also I'm trying this recipe now and it smells amazing! I really appreciate the flavor profile you aimed for here! I don't like the sweeter apple curry recipes and wanted something more along these lines! Thank you!!
Great video the accent is really really unique your English teacher must be super British, probably from London and working class, teacher probably not formally educated on pronunciation. Very classy vid but not a "t" pronounced (mel"t"ed). Anyway 1000x better than my Japanese will ever be lol
My dad loved it man TYVM
I made curry tonight with Golden medium-hot roux. Added one grated honeycrisp apple, some honey, and some worcestershire sauce.
Thank you for sharing your "secrets" to a better flavor! I am excited to try your method ๐
Great Content and Recipe. What Brand of Pots and Pan are those? Im interested to know where can I buy them?
I tried with adding yogurt instead of coffee and it tasted good too!
I liked the way y0u cooked.. the way U cut ur ingredients is same as mine…I loved the appearance it is really looks yUmmy..I think it is … Thank u f0r sharing ur skills…"GOD" bless..๐๐๏ธโฅ๏ธ๐
Coffee powder! Very surprising.
As an Indian my heart raced so hard when u put coffee in the curry, but im sure the taste wonโt be offending. I was happy to learn another use of coffee๐
