I remember taking a few bites of the curry, thinking man this is so good, how have I never tried curry before?– and looking up at Nate who looked at me the exact same moment. He had the look in his eye like he had just found gold. From then we were hooked. I, being nosy ol’ me, had to ask for the recipe. Thank goodness it was easy. I wasn’t much of a cook back then. I worried more about studying and finals, and playing- than I did about cooking. The answer was this simple box.
Naomi had cooked the “hot” version for us using just water, but over the years and trying several different curry’s at Thai recipes we have now altered. I like to use chicken broth, or sometimes even a can of coconut milk to make it creamy. When I have gone to Japanese Curry Restaurants they usually serve this just as a sauce, no veggies, with chicken and side of steamy white rice. You can try it how you like! My very favorite is just like pictured. I throw all the ingredients in the crock pot and slowly cook all day. Or, you can make it over the stove top. Start by browning the onion and chicken together when cooked add sauce + carrots and potatoes and let simmer. It’s such and easy, filling, comfort food meal.

The instructions are for two different types of cooking methods. You can cook it on the stove top, or you can cook them in a slow-cooker.
**For a creamy curry substitue 1 a can of coconut milk in place of 1 can of chicken broth.*It's not part of a Traditional Japanese Curry, but it makes it deliciously creamy.
PRESSURE COOKER: Follow crock pot instructions, cook on stew/soup setting for 1 hour. Cook rice separately, or empty pot and cook rice in pot after your curry has cooked.
made this and it was delish! perfect for my toddler and mashed up for my 7-month old, then I added some cayenne for my husband and me!
We love this stuff!! I also like to add sweet potatoes along with the carrots, potatoes and onion you listed – so good!
Hi Michelle! Oh man, sweet potatoes would be SO good in this. I’m going to have to try them.
So, my husband made this today…i think your instructions might be wrong. They are numbered and appear to continue from the stove top to the crock pot…so he did both. Is that correct??
Hey Jen, So the ingredients are for either method of cooking. You can cook it on the stove top OR the crockpot. The numbers are part of recipe card widget, dang thing. I can’t get them to disappear. I’ll go back and make a note in case it confusing someone else too. Thank you for pointing that out.
