Kalau ke Jepang, makanan ini yang gampang dimakan selain sushi dan sashimi  dan hampir setiap kedai dipinggir jalanpun ada. Rasa "roux" nya mirip sate padang kalau di Indonesia. Ini juga masalah makanan sering jadi perdebatan bercanda dengan bos-bos ku yang orang jepang or temen yang orang jepang...wkwkwkwk..kadang beberapa makanan memang mirip antara Jepang dengan Indonesia, contohnya Moci, aku bilang " ini asli makanan Sukabumi Indonesia....atau Kue Satu, tapi kalau kue satu kue peranakan mungkin ya.

 

Sabtu kemarin nyoba bikin :Japanese Curry Chicken, ternyata gak sesusah bayangannya...gampang dech , dan rasanya pun enak, jadi kalau bisa bikin bumbu sendiri gak perlu beli bumbu "Japanese Curry " yang kemasan kan??? , pemilihan curry powdernya yang enak ya....dijamin enakkkk dech.

 

 

 

 

 

Ingredients

• For the roux
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 1/4 cup flour
• 2 tablespoons garam masala (or curry powder)
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (add less if you want it mild or more if you want it spicy)
• Fresh ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoons ketchup (or tomato paste)
• 1 tablespoons tonkatsu sauce (or Worcestershire sauce)
• For the curry
• 2 teaspoon oil
• 2 large onions sliced thin
• 2 pounds chicken thighs cleaned and cut into chunks (you could also use beef, shrimp, or tofu)
• 2 carrots cut into chunks
• 4 cups water
• 2 large yukon gold potatoes cut into large chunks
• 1 small apple peeled cored and pureed (I use a Microplane) ( aku skip)
• 2 teaspoons kosher salt (use less if you use regular salt)
• 1 teaspoon garam masala ( or curry powder- aku pake mc cormick)
• 1/2 cup peas

Procedures

1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium low heat and add the onions. Sauté the onions until they are golden brown and caramelized (about 30 minutes). Turn up the heat to high, add the chicken, and brown.
2. Add the carrots and the water, then bring to a boil. Skim off any foam or oil that accumulates at the surface then lower heat to medium and add the potatoes, puréed apple, salt, and garam masala. Simmer for about 30 minutes or until you can pass a fork through the carrots and potatoes and the meat is tender.
3. For the roux, melt the butter over medium low heat. Add the flour and garam masala, stirring until you have a thick paste. Add the cayenne pepper and some fresh ground black pepper and incorporate into the roux. Add the ketchup and tonkatsu sauce and combine. Continue to cook until the paste starts crumbling. Remove from heat and set aside until the meat and veggies are ready.
4. To make the curry, just ladle about 2 cups of liquid into the roux then whisk until it's smooth. Pour this mixture back into the other pot and gently stir until thickened. Add the peas and heat through.
5. 5Serve over rice or noodles.
