Main Ingredients- 1 packet mild curry powder (100g)
- 1 medium onion
- 2 medium potatoes
- A small piece of carrot
- A small piece of zucchini
- 700ml water
- 1 serving frozen udon noodles
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, lightly grease a pan with cooking oil. Add the potatoes and carrots, cut into bite-sized pieces, and sauté them. Since potatoes and carrots are firm vegetables, they are stir-fried first to ensure they cook through. Sauté for about 3-5 minutes.
Step 2
Once the potatoes start to become slightly translucent, add the onion and zucchini, also cut into manageable pieces, and stir-fry them together. Onion and zucchini cook relatively quickly, so adding them after the potatoes and carrots have begun to soften helps maintain a pleasant texture. Continue to stir-fry for about 2-3 more minutes.
Step 3
After the vegetables have been gently stir-fried, pour in 700ml of water and bring it to a rolling boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and let the vegetables simmer until tender, about 10-15 minutes.
Step 4
When the vegetables are completely tender, add the entire packet of mild curry powder (100g). You can sift it through a sieve to ensure no lumps, or add it directly and whisk quickly to prevent clumping. It’s crucial to mix it rapidly so the curry powder dissolves evenly into the broth.
Step 5
Once the curry powder is fully dissolved and the sauce has thickened, bring it to a gentle simmer again to deepen the flavors. As soon as it starts to bubble, turn off the heat. Be careful not to overcook, as the curry can scorch.
Step 6
In a separate pot, bring plenty of water to a boil. Add the frozen udon noodles (1 serving) and cook according to the package directions, or until the noodles are separated and tender, which usually takes about 2-3 minutes.
Step 7
Drain the cooked udon noodles and rinse them briefly under cold water to remove excess starch. Place the drained noodles into a serving bowl. Generously ladle the warm curry sauce over the noodles. It’s ready to be mixed and enjoyed!
Step 8
Voila! Tonight’s delicious curry udon, loved by both kids and adults, is complete. The abundant ingredients and the smooth, rich curry sauce combine to create an unforgettable taste experience.
