Curry Beef Stew Served Over Steamed Rice
I was feeling nostalgic the other day and was remembering a curry dish that my japanese mother would occasionally make. my mother passed away in 2002, and i never got the recipe from her. the other day i started experimenting, and i finally came up with a dish that is close to the one she would make. this dish is similar to a thick beef stew, but has a wonderful curry flavor. my mother's dish had a greener curry. i think she used to get her curry at the oriental store. i used a curry that i had gotten at my local supermarket. i do want to try this again with a curry from the oriental store. you can use more or less curry to suit your taste. this is cooked slowly to make the meat nice and tender.
