Best 3 Curry Chicken Udon Recipes

CURRY UDON

Steps:

• Place carrots and onion in a microwave-safe bowl; add water. Cover and microwave on high until tender, about 4 minutes.
• Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Whisk in 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons flour to form a paste, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in curry powder. Whisk in hot vegetable stock slowly until incorporated and smooth, about 3 minutes. Stir steamed carrots and onion, soy sauce, and maple syrup into the curry broth.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook udon noodles in boiling water, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender yet firm to the bite, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain. Add noodles to curry broth.

CURRY UDON

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil, add the udon and cook for about 2 minutes, using wooden chopsticks or tongs to gently loosen the noodles from their tight bundle. Drain, rinse with cold water and leave to continue draining while you prepare the remaining ingredients. Keep the pot out for making the curry broth. (No need to rinse.)
• To make the curry roux, place a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the butter and allow it to melt completely. Add the flour and whisk until smooth. Cook, whisking constantly, for 4 to 5 minutes, until the roux turns a light caramel color. Whisk in the curry powder, garam masala and ground cayenne. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Place the large pot from Step 1 over medium-high heat and add the neutral oil. Add the onion and stir for 1 to 2 minutes until slightly softened and fragrant. Add the potatoes and carrots, and stir. Pour in the dashi or stock, soy sauce or tamari, sugar and ½ teaspoon of salt, and stir to combine. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium, cover and simmer for 10 to 12 minutes, until the vegetables are just tender.
• When the vegetables are tender, add the curry roux (if you are using store-bought curry bricks, add them now, checking package instructions to determine how many bricks to add) and stir until the broth thickens. It should be the consistency of a thick soup broth (like chowder). If it is too thick, add some water to loosen.
• Add the udon to the broth, along with the spinach. Cook for about 2 minutes, until the noodles are just warmed through and the spinach is just wilted.
• Divide the noodles and broth equally among four serving bowls, and eat immediately.
