Curry was brought to Japan by the British in the 18th century and has since become one of the nation's most popular dishes. Unlike typical Asian curries, the Japanese sauce is thick and subtly sweet. As for the spice level, that can vary from mild to hot. Kare raisu is commonly made using store-bought curry roux blocks. They are really good and convenient, especially in a pinch. But a from-scratch version doesn't take that much more time or effort and tastes a bit fresher and more nuanced. You can also play with the flavorings to suit your taste. Onions, carrots and potato are classic kare raisu ingredients, along with some kind of protein. This recipe uses beef, but you could try chicken, seafood or tofu, which can be cooked right in the sauce with the vegetables.
