  • This Japanese Ground Beef Curry recipe is a filling and tasty meal prep recipe that only requires one pot and a rice cooker. I love Japanese Curry for meal prep because it tends to get even better after being in the fridge for a few days. The recipe can be found here: mealprepmanual.com/japanese-g...

    I wanted to make this vegan. So, I substituted the beef with 2/3 pound of textured vegetable protein hydrated with 2 2/3 cups of water. I substituted the beef broth with my homemade vegetable broth (that I make from leftover vegetable trimmings). I also wanted to avoid using flour, so I steamed an extra 1/2 potato in the microwave and mashed it up to thicken the sauce. Most of the flavor comes from the spices so it was still unbelievably yummy.

      if you dont have a microwave, keep the curry separate.
      cold rice you can steam, heat up water in a pan with steamer rack,
      place your rice on a plate, plate on the steamer rack.
      or use fresh rice from the rice cooker.
      you can heat up the curry in a pan, just add a bit of water so it doesnt become dry.
      or you could dump it all in a hot pan and stir fry, turning it into curry rice (something like the tomato rice in japanese omelette rice)

    Many of Josh's meals are absolute staples in my house. This is the first recipe that following the directions is a hard no from me. I used both an authentic curry powder and garam masala in the directed portions, and even though while doing it that it seemed like a lot but I decided to trust it. It ended up being so overwhelmingly spiced that it's a struggle to get through.
    It honesty may be my mistake. The recipe may be fine with the weaker store bought American curry powers, but if you're using stronger stuff maybe consider halfing the spice quantity.

      ​​​@@jeycalc6877 they taste different because they different amounts of spices but they use the same spices. I'm guessing you're calling it Indian because he used curry powder and garam masala. But Japanese curry powders are similar to British style curry powders you usually find in the west. Both are less spicy than most Indian curry powder. Unless you are experienced in making both those curries and familiar with the amounts and proportions of spices used, it's hard to tell to tell from simply watching a video which is which from simply watching a video, without tasting it. And this recipe also uses stock and soy sauce which arent used in traditional indian curries. And indian curries often use yoghurt, coconut milk or cream etc and cooked tomatoes, which weren't used here. And there's also the problem of India being a very diverse country with each region having their own curries. So its hard to know what curry you are familiar. Some of them are more similar to Japanese curries than others.
