Easy peasy anyone can make this. No more slaving over the stove to make your roux. Who has time for that anyway? Make a generous batch and use as needed.A roux is what Cajuns use to make gravy and thicken stews and Gumbo.I make mine in a 4 cup Pyrex measuring cup with a handle, Enough room to mix and the handle makes it easy for cooking and handling. IT WILL BE HOT! IT will continue to brown even when the microwave is off. So stop BEFORE desired darkness is achieved. Continue to stir every now and then as it's cooling. Bayou Cajun Mama -

Simple Taste- Curry Made from Homemade Roux: Simple with Flour Simple Taste- Curry Made from Homemade Roux: Simple with Flour
The oily texture of store-bought roux bothers me, so I tried making authentic curry using various ingredients at first, but I thought up a recipe that can be easily made with simple ingredients.I use this thickening technique to make white stew as well .The spiciness depends on the amount of curry powder. Adjust it to 1~2 tablespoons when serving to children.It will become medium-spicy with about 2 tablespoons.Make sure to add in the final salt a bit at a time while checking the taste so you do not add too much.Using olive oil or the oil from the meat for sauteing will make this even healthier. For 5~6 people. Recipe by 8tokki8 cookpad.japan -
Delicious Curry with Homemade Roux Delicious Curry with Homemade Roux
When I looked at the ingredients listed on a box of commercial curry roux, I was surprised that it included things like beef fat and lard. I made a version that can be eaten without worrying about the ingredients.The color and sweetness of the curry depends on how well you sauté the onion. Sauté patiently while stirring to prevent burning until it has caramelized.I added sugar to make the curry sweeter, but if you use grated apple or honey instead, there will be more depth to the flavor. For 4 servings. Recipe by La Land cookpad.japan -

Pork Stew with Store-Bought Roux Pork Stew with Store-Bought Roux
[Featured in Category, Thanks to 100 People]Our family makes pork stew using beef stew mix. It warms you up on a cold day.The origin of this recipe: We've been making it with pork instead of beef for over ten years. Adding ketchup was something I saw on TV, though my memory is vague. I started adding consomme after trying a chicken soup curry recipe by Niisanpo (Recipe ID: 22980070) and thought consomme might work well in stew too. めみたん☆Translated from Cookpad Japan -

Remoulade Sauce Remoulade Sauce
This cold sauce or dressing is delicious for fish, seafood, various meats, and even sandwiches. I made it this time to serve with seafood. I'll be using it in a dish with abalone, which we call 'locos' in Chile. Locos are a type of shellfish with tough meat and a thick, hard shell; in the United States, they're known as abalone. We're on vacation in Chile, and I had to make this recipe here. I got fresh abalone from a diver. Stay tuned for my video about abalone. Jon MichelenaTranslated from Cookpad Chile -
Cream Stew without Roux Cream Stew without Roux
My family doesn't like how the roux in cream stew leaves an oily feeling on your tongue, so we always make stew without roux. I make this stew with lots of leftover vegetables, and I put all kinds of vegetables in it.This time, I added broccoli stems, but you could also add cabbage cores or soy beans. The kabocha squash will dissolve a little and color the soup yellow. For adults, add black pepper to make it spicy and delicious. Recipe by Nikonikopu-san cookpad.japan -
