Japanese Curry with Vegetable/ Chicken/ Pork 日式咖喱－蔬菜/ 鸡肉/ 猪肉

Photo updated 4 April 2017

In the past, I used to buy instant Japanese curry because it's easy and quick! However, I don't like it because every time after we finished the curry, when I wash the bowl, there were some 'wax-like' substances which I was concerned and decided not to use store bought curry. 

I then learnt to cook Japanese curry from scratch. I know, you may think that cooking curry isn't an easy job but I  can ensure you, Japanese curry preparation is easier than any other curry ;) 

The only tedious job is to prepare the curry roux. Once the curry roux is ready, store it in the fridge, you can cook a pot of delicious Japanese curry any time! Hassle-free! Even my 6yo son can cook this :) with a little help from me of course ;)

I normally serve the curry with plain rice. When I have time, I served it with onigiri:
