JAPANESE CURRY CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place chicken in a large, deep skillet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper on both sides. Add 1/3 cup water to the pan, cover, and cook over medium heat until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes.
• While chicken is cooking, pour 2 cups water into a microwave-safe bowl. Break curry sauce mix into pieces and add to water. Heat in the microwave on high for 3 1/2 minutes; remove and stir until sauce mix has completely dissolved.
• Remove chicken from the skillet. Cut into cubes, return to the skillet, and pour curry sauce over top. Stir in peas, potatoes, mushrooms, carrots, and onion. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes.

• Scoop rice into bowls and serve curry on top.

ONE-POT JAPANESE CURRY CHICKEN AND RICE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Rub chicken with 1 tablespoon oil, and season with salt and pepper.
• In a large Dutch oven or heavy pot, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil with 1 tablespoon butter over medium until butter is melted. Working in two batches, brown chicken 3 to 4 minutes per side, and transfer to a plate.
• Add onion to the pot, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until softened, 2 minutes. Add curry powder, garlic, ginger, nutmeg and the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, and stir until butter is melted and spices are fragrant, 1 minute.
• Add rinsed rice and stir until evenly coated in spices. Add potato, carrots, broth and Worcestershire sauce, scraping bottom of pot to lift up any browned bits. Season broth generously with salt and pepper. Arrange chicken (and any accumulated juices) on top, skin-side up, and bring to a boil over high. Cover and bake for 20 minutes. Uncover and bake until most of the liquid is absorbed and chicken is golden and cooked through, about 10 minutes longer.

JAPANESE GOLDEN CURRY

• in a medium/large pot, heat oil and saute onions and protein (if using) until lightly browned.

SIMPLE & QUICK JAPANESE CURRY

Steps:

• Chop up the chicken into bite-sized cubes. Tenderloins are a smaller, thinner cut of chicken and are easier to cut up.
• Wash the vegetables. Peel the potatoes, and the carrots if you wish. Slice the potatoes, carrots, and onion into bite-sized pieces as well. Finely dice the garlic.
• Now is a good time to start making the rice. Cook according to directions on the package. A rice cooker is great because it'll keep the rice warm while the curry cooks.
• Put vegetable oil in a deep pan (a pasta pot or dutch-oven-style saucepan works well) and heat over a medium flame. Add chicken, onions, and garlic and sautee in oil until the chicken is lightly browned.
• Add carrots and potatoes, continue to stir in oil for 3-4 minutes.
• Now add the water, enough to cover all the ingredients in the pan (I've never measured it out, but it should be about 3-4 cups).
• Bring water to a boil, then reduce heat and allow to cook for 5-10 minutes, this helps soften the vegetables.
• Remove pan from heat, and add the curry sauce mix. Break the block into four pieces and scatter evenly around the pan, stirring until the blocks have completely melted. The water will thicken dramatically, turning into a brown sauce with a stew-like consistency.
• If you want to keep the curry warm, you can keep it on a very low flame (the lowest setting on your stovetop), just remember to stir it occasionally so it won't stick.
• Serve over rice and enjoy!

• Transfer toasted spice mixture to a spice grinder or blender. Add turmeric, white peppercorns, black peppercorns, allspice, and nutmeg; grind into a fine curry powder.
• Melt 3/4 cup butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook until golden brown, 30 to 45 seconds. Stir in 4 tablespoons of the curry powder, Worcestershire sauce, and tomato paste. Remove from heat.
• Melt 1/2 cup butter in a large pot over low heat. Add onions; cook and stir until golden brown, 30 to 45 minutes.

JAPANESE CURRY RICE

Steps:

• If making the garam masala combined 1 tsp ground cloves, 1 tsp ground ginger, 1 tsp ground cinnamon, and 1 tsp black pepper in a small bowl. Place in an air tight container and put aside.(Note: You will not be using all of this in the recipe.).
• Start by cutting your choice of meat, the potatoes, carrots, and onion (or celery) into bite-sized pieces.
• Heat a deep pan on medium.
• Add the cooking oil and the meat.
• Saute until the meat is fully cooked.
• Add vegetables and saute together.
• Add the 1 cup of water to the pan and bring to a boil.
• Turn the heat down to low and cook for 40-50 minutes.
• In a separate pan heat the 3 cups of water and add the two types of bouillon to make soup.
• Slice the remaining two onions very thinly. (it will be better for the recipe this way).
• Heat butter in another pan and saute onion slices until they are brown for 15-20 minutes.
• Add the garlic and the ginger to the pan and saute well.
• Add flour and curry powder and saute over low heat.
• Slowly pour the soup into the pan, little by little, stirring quickly.
• Simmer the curry roux until thickened. (Resist the urge to add more flour. It may seem a little thinner than desired, but it will thicken once added to the meat and vegetables.).
• Once the curry roux is thickened, add the garam masala. (Try to sprinkle it in, instead of dumping the lot of it inches If there are clumps, it will take longer to dissolve).
• After the meat and vegetables have been cooking for 40-50 minutes add the curry roux to them. (Do not drain the meat and vegetables first. The water remaining will flavor the curry further).
• Stir and let simmer for ten minutes.
• Sprinkle with salt.
• Serve the curry over Japanese rice.

• Add the mushroom, kombu and peppercorns to the spice grinder, and grind at the highest speed for 30 seconds. Shake the grinder a couple of times as you blend to make sure the cinnamon stick is pulverized. (You can also grind the spices in batches, if necessary.) Transfer the pulverized spices to a small bowl. Add the orange zest, turmeric, ginger, sea salt, paprika and cayenne pepper.
• To make the roux, melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. When the butter is nearly melted, lower the heat to medium-low.

Turn off the heat, add the spice mix and stir until well combined.
• Divide the mixture among three mini aluminum loaf pans, adding about 3/4 cup per loaf pan, or transfer the entire mixture to a parchment-lined quarter-size sheet tray. Let cool for a few minutes at room temperature, then transfer to the fridge so the bricks can solidify. Once firm, unmold, cut each brick into 9 small curry brick cubes (or, if using a sheet tray, cut the mixture into 27 pieces total) and wrap tightly in plastic wrap.

I like to stir in a cup of sour cream for added richness, but this is optional.

JAPANESE CUTLETS AND CURRY

Steps:

• 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.
• 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.
• Pour oil in a frying pan until will cover chicken. Heat over med-high heat.
• 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.).
• Fry the chicken till golden and juices run clear. Depending on your stove 10-15 minute.
• 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 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!
• 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!
• I really like to do steamed eggplant with this, but still have to fix chicken for hubby since he won't eat eggplant!
