As coming to summer, you want to have some spicy hot foods, don’t you? Last weekend I cooked Japanese summer curry. It’s made with the box of the Japanese curry sauce mix. There are various named Japanese curry box like S&B and House foods, but everything works the same.
It’s really delicious and easy to make. If you are not in the mood to cook dinner and you have some meat and onions left in your fridge, the curry box helps your cooking much easier! Except simmer time, work time is about 10 minutes. It’s done with only add water and the Japanese curry mix to the stir-fry meat and vegetable. No fail recipe even if you make the Japanese curry for the first time. Once you eat the curry, you will love its thick spicy curry as majority of Japanese people do so.
One box can be served for 8 people. And today I will share the recipe for 4 people, so enjoy your arrangement of ingredient for half of it.
I hope this Japanese curry recipe widens the choice for your summer table!
