It's kind of rare to see curry cooking in a manga or anime that doesn't load it up with potatoes and carrots. But this recipe is still a bit too heavy on fat, isn't it?
I never put potato in curry, but I do put lots of other vegetables in, and as a result, usually I don't have to add water. How do you guys normally make curry?
I usually went the easy route of using a curry roux block with stock and tomato paste with seasonings to taste (caramelized onion, garlic).
I usually add the veggies when making the stock (potato/carrot, grated apple) but never together with the curry.
Afterwards I just baked my left over potato and toss it in the curry when i serve alongside some cut apple slice and my katsu of choice.
Yeah, I've only ever made Japanese curry.
