Lots of people commenting "I thought the recipe had this/that in" missing the point. He's not saying this is the exact recipe used in Wagamama restaurants. Yes the real one is quite different, probably starts with a roux like most Japanese curries, yes also probably uses apples, more ginger etc. Just showing you it's easy to make your own version at home. If you'd rather add something else or do something slightly different, go ahead and do it, that's how you make a recipe your own.

If people want the Wagamama recipe for Katsu curry you'll find it on KZread by Wags themselves. So it makes sense to do a slightly more interpretive version.

Ok can every country share their innovative “deliveryware”...I’m still rolling in styrofoam squares, and cardboard !

Personally, I don't use brown sugar in my curry- I add that sweetness with two methods. First; I'll caramelize my onions (since they have their own sugars in there) and I'll add fruit. Yes, fruit. No, I'm not completely bonkers. A bit of green apple (the sour ones) and banana will add the sweetness we want, plenty of pectin to help get that nice and hearty body, as well as a fresh fruitiness that, at least to me, helps round out the flavors. If you want the sauce to be a bit 'darker' but don't want to load up on paprika, a touch of tomato paste that is cooked with the onions for a bit, until it turns a deep red color, also helps add more depth, but it might not be for everyone. Just remember; a good curry takes time. No need to rush to a boil, let it simmer, let the flavors come out, thicken the sauce. And for the sake of whatever you hold dear; don't go light on the spices. Curry is meant to be spicy!

@Lurkley

Hi! Bit late to this video, but If you have one local to you try making gyudon with the thin cut beef stakes sold in ASDA. The pack is a little pricey at around £5.50, but you get four or five quite long strips that are almost as thin as I’ve had in Japan. I roll the rest of the steaks up individually in baking paper and put in the freezer, so I can keep a stash of them ready to go. Then you can cut the beef into smaller pieces and poach with fried onions in the sweet soy broth, served over rice with pickles. Really quick and tasty!

here in hawaii they do a Katsu sauce with katchup, worcestershire and soy.

Used to work at Wagamama as a chef, I can tell you the quality of ingredients at waga is dire. I would not advice anyone to eat it, in fact three years ago before I worked there I ate there via a manager who gave me free flu hers whom I knew (who actually got me setup with a job). Anyway, when I ate there it was awful, no taste no flavour. When I worked there I got to understood the low quality of ingredients, literally the chicken smelt awful yes it was raw but believe me, it was baaad. Don’t get me started on the pork belly, it nearly made me gag. Avoid Wagamama like the plague at least if you want bang for your buck. Every single ingredient is of poor quality and I’m even talking about the raw ingredients. The mark up is obscenely high Chicken Katsu used to cost something like £1.56 to make and yet they sell it for £13 odd quid on the menu. My advice? Make your own, it will taste infinitely better.

​@@testdasi In case it isn't obvious, Japanese Curry actually has its origins in India but it didn't actually come from India through Japan, but it came via England through the British Navy. In case you were wondering(which I know you are) Japanese curry is inspired from a French roux(because it's England), so it's as simple as you think it is when it comes to ingredients. All you need for a Japanese Curry sauce are: flour, butter, curry powder, chili powder(optional) & a stock. For the seasoning is: tomato ketchup, soy sauce, sugar & worcestershire sauce. This on the other hand is NOT Japanese Curry. I dare you to google or search any video yourself to see if an authentic Japanese curry has Onions, Garlic, Bay leaf, & Coconut Milk. cough**shame**cough I have this knowledge not just because I'm Asian myself who lived all my life in Asia but it's a simple concept. Stupid. cough**shame**cough Every other race can access this knowledge, not just an Asian like me. We don't necessary have to be the authority on this subject. So technically, I established the idea his making on Indian curry based upon his use of its ingredients and thus Vineet Bhatia himself has said it on *The Final Plate* _(see if for yoursef, it's on Netflix)_ the importance of ginger & coconut milk combination on a curry. If I am lying then go watch it yourself. cough**micdropped**cough PS: if you're going to have a cooking show, then don't expect your viewers to know it all along that it's a pre-mixed. Remember, not all viewers has the same knowledge as you. And for that reason, if you're going to emulate the take away food, my question is then: Why hide it on your viewers?

Your recipe is so wrong, Japanese curry are thicken with a roux, preferably using butter to make the roux as well. Cornstarch slurry just doesn't create that gravy texture which is what Japanese curry is all about. Also, the Japanese like to sweeten their curry with fruit, a Fuji apple works wonder b/c not only does it add sweetness but the apple melting in the curry adds to the thickness of the gravy.

No

I'd probably learn how to actually make something before uploading a video of yourself making it. You don't even start with a roux, which is the main thing that differentiates this from other curries
