Friday dinner: Japanese beef curry

Posted on

For the first time in a while I made curry. Curry for me is one of those things that is good once in a while, but never more then once every month. The last time I made curry was when I still lived in SOMA. Recently I have had problems with my curry not tasting like curry, but tonight was the first time in a while that it actually tasted like curry. I’m not exactly sure what I did differently to make it taste okay this time. I have decided that it is two different variables that could have caused this changed. First I did a mix of beef and chicken broth this time, and I cooked the curry into the onions longer this time before adding the broth. It was not without its problems though. One problem that occurred was the potatoes were not cooked long enough. I think this could be related to the size of each piece. If i made them smaller I think I would have cooked on time. Secondly it felt too thin, I had to make a secondary roux to thicken and still it felt slightly too thin. I believe if i had made a roux 3tbsp instead of 2 it would have turned out better.
