When I want some quick, Japanese curry, I go to the store and by a package of "Golden Curry"!. It comes in several flavor "intensities" and is quite easy to make!. I ate it quite a bit during the 3 years I lived in Japan!. They have recipe suggestions on the box!. But what the heck, experiment! It's fun!.!.!.

P!.S!. Here's one to get you started:

Japanese Cutlets and Curry


Ingredients

* 4 chicken breasts (or pork cutlets or medalions, whatever you prefer)
* 1 egg, beaten
* 2 cups flour
* 3 cups panko (really use this not bread crumbs, makes all the difference)
* oil, for frying
* salt and pepper, to taste
* 1 (8 1/2 ounce) package s&b curry roux (this will be in the golden or black box that says S&B Golden Curry Sauce Mix, in your asian aisle!.)
* 2 garlic cloves, SLICED and toasted till golden brown, don't burn
* 2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded (use the cheap brick cheese in the cheese aisle and cube, Not pre-shedded, NOT the fresh balls)
* rice, to serve with

Directions

1 Wash chicken breasts!. Pat dry with paper towel and then pound each flat between sheets of wax paper with a meat mallet, or whatever you use!.

2 Toast your garlic before you start anything else!. I usually just put it in a dry skillet over med heat till a little crispy!. But it can be done in the oven, jsut don't let it burn!. this is just to put on top of the finished dish, if you don't like garlic skip this step!.

3 Pour oil in a frying pan until will cover chicken!. Heat over med-high heat!.

4 One at a time, dip chicken breasts in flour (seasoned with salt and pepper), then in egg (if run out just crack open another and beat it), then roll in panko crumbs (seasoned with salt and pepper, if desired!.)!.

5 Fry the chicken till golden and juices run clear!. Depending on your stove 10-15 minute!.

6 While chicken's frying, take your blocks of curry roux and put all of them, yes all, into a big pot!. Heat over med-high heat!. Add 6-8 cups of water!. Add 6 cups at first, then if too thick looking add more water till consistency you want!. I like mine not thick but not too runny, usually have to add about 7 or 8 cups of water!. I also like to add a couple dashes of curry powder, i use S&B, to give it an extra kick!

7 Have some cooked rice ready!. Put a chicken breast, may want to pre-cut it beforehand, on bed of rice then pour curry sauce over!. Use a bowl for each serving! Put garlic and cheese on top, if desired!. Cheese will melt and taste very yummy all mixed up in it!. Warning, will fill your belly up quickly!

Enjoy!

Curry is one of the most popular dishes in Japan!. Japanese-style curry is usually thicker than curry found in other cuisines!. Using Japanese curry roux such as House, S&B and Glico brand, makes it easy to cook Japanese-style curry at home!. Curry mixes thicken curry sauce and vary from hot to mild!. They contain many kinds of spices and vegetables and fruit essences!.

Typical Japanese curry includes vegetables, such as onion, carrots, and potatoes, and meat!. Chicken, pork, beef, or seafood can be used for curry!. also, ingredients can be vegetable only if you prefer!. Many people cook a large amount of curry at a time and keep it for a few days!. also, it's a good idea to freeze curry in a freezer bag!.

Well I've tried cooking curry with my Japanese aunt, but it was a long time ago and I'm not so sure!.

Mostly the curry sauce is already cooked, sold inside packets at the grocery!. You could try and take a peek at the 'Imported Goods' aisle and see if they're selling Japanese Curry!. If so, you could heat it up and add veggies/meat and voila!

When we cooked curry, we really boiled the carrots, potatoes and onions for a LOOOONG LOOONG time!. Because they have to be really soft my aunt said!. So you boil the veggies in water (plus the curry sauce) till they get so mushy-soft, then add the meat (any kind)!.

You could add more ingredients or spike up the hotness with chili powder!. It's up to you!. I even tried cooking it and melted some cheese on top!.

It's nice to experiment on curry!. The more flavors, the better it tastes!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
