The ONLY recipe where u don't use cubes and stuff, SUPER EASY, probably THE best recipe out there. It's always the ones with less recognition having the BEST recipe, thank u sooo much

Since I discovered I suffer from gluten sensitivity 3 years ago, I never had curry rice again. Today I made this recipe. I used tapioca starch as the thickening agent instead of flour and I also added a bit of honey for flavor. It was so delicious. Better than store bought. Thank you so much for this recipe, now I’m able to eat curry rice again ☺️

I see you figured out how to cook and plate rice! LOL! Seriously, Top Chef production gave everyone access to stoves, fryers, blenders, ovens, even pizza ovens, but no, they didn’t let you use a rice cooker to cook rice. You should have been the winner! You are my winner!

Made this tonight. So good. Great balance of flavors: I had no idea that the sweetness came from apple and banana. I eyeballed the spice mix, which turned out great, and having had Japanese curry before I know it tasted the way it should, but maybe give a rough ratio of spices for those that might not have the experience? Thank you for the recipe, this is going into the family catalogue.

@savannafc10 ай бұрын
I made this tonight for my family and it was really good. Used grated pear instead of apple, and omitted the cardamom (didn’t have any on hand) and it was still amazing. Used a bit of dark soy to deepen the colour. Wish I had some scallions or chives to garnish with. So good. Thanks for the recipe!
@feathersmcgraw46505 ай бұрын
Did you add the banana as well? Can you taste the banana in the curry?
@savannafc5 ай бұрын
Yeah, I did, but I think it’s mainly for sweetness. With this much spice going on you won’t be able to taste the banana distinctly.

There are a few comments asking about the curry spice blend measurements. I will share what I tried. I toasted these in a skillet let them cool and then ground them up in a mortar and pestle 7g whole coriander seed 6g whole cumin seed 6g whole cardamom seed (shelled) 6g Szechuan Peppercorn 4g allspice (if you can't find allspice, try mixing cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg) I then added Ground Turmeric to that spice mix. 16g turmeric I used about 3 tablespoons of that mixture in the curry to about 2 liters of stock.

@@letXeqX You're welcome. I have since made adjustments to the spice blend. Here are the changes I made: Cut back the peppercorns to 5g Added and toasted: 6g fenugreek seeds 2g fennel seeds 1/2 star anise pod 3 cloves For the stock, I blended 1l of dashi and 1l of chicken. I tend to prefer spicier curries so I added habanero powder to the seasoning blend to suit my taste.

Google is a wonder, found my own answer: "The word "curry" may have been adopted into Japanese in the late 1860s as karē when British traders introduced curry powder to Japan during the Meiji era (1868-1912). The word comes from the Tamil word kari, which means "blackened" and refers to the curry tree's leaves. However, the word "curry" has been controversial because it was used by an imperialist power to describe a variety of dishes from many different cultures. Some say that the word is inadequate because it uses the colonizer's language to describe the colonized's food"
