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

  5. 2Potatoes (medium)
  6. Seasonings:
  7. 1Margarine (or butter)
  8. 700 mlWater
  9. 200 mlApple Juice
  10. 3cubes Bouillon Cubes
  11. 2 tbspCurry powder
  12. 2 tbspJapanese Worcestershire-style sauce
  13. 1 tbspKetchup
  14. 1 tspGarlic (tubed)
  15. 1 dashGrated ginger
  16. 1just a hint Honey
  17. 1 tspSalt
  18. For thickening:
  19. 4 tbspPlain flour
  20. 100 mlWater

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Saute the onions in margarine until they wilt, add meat, cook it through, then add the vegetables. Season with a hint of salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Add water, apple juice, and bouillon once it cooks through. Taste-testing while adding ingredients is fun from here on.

  3. 3

    After bringing to a simmer over a low heat, add curry powder, Japanese Worcester sauce, ketchup, garlic, ginger, and honey. Add salt a bit at a time, and decide on the flavor!

  4. 4

    Once you're content with the taste, cover with a lid and gently simmer (simmer well here before adding the thickener). Do the dishes and other chores while you wait.

  5. 5

    Add the thickener at the last step. I will introduce a trick so you can make this with no clumping. You can make this thick without using. Add water to flour slowly and mix well.

  6. 6

    Work the flour in, a little at a time, to a thick consistency. If you make it this far, you don't have to worry about it clumping up anymore.

  7. 7

    This is what it should look like. Add it in a bit at a time to the curry while blending, turn the heat on once again, and it is done once it comes to a gentle simmer.

  8. 8

    ~Shortcut Step~ After sauteing the onions, add the base (water, juice, bouillon) and simmer. Then you can add the vegetables as you finish cutting them.
