Flavorful, versatile, and incredibly easy to make- this gluten free yellow curry cubes recipe is one you need to try your hands at!
Ingredients
- 150 gms Gluten free all purpose flour
- 150 gms Butter
- ½ teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 tablespoon Garam masala powder
- ½ teaspoon Garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon Ginger powder
- 1 tablespoon Curry powder
- 2 tablespoon Honey
- ¼ teaspoon Turmeric powder
Instructions
- Heat the butter in a pan and cook the flour until it starts to get slightly brown in color.
- Now add the garlic powder, ginger powder and onion powder and all the other ingredients and let it cook on low heat for a couple of additional minutes.
- Take this off heat, and allow it to cool down completely. Now add the honey and give it a good mix.
- Transfer this to a container lined with parchment paper and allow this to set in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours.
Notes
- Use a good-quality gluten-free all-purpose flour blend to make sure the roux thickens properly without becoming grainy.
- Cook the flour in melted butter until it turns lightly golden, stirring continuously to prevent it from burning.
- Keep the heat low when adding the spices, as they can burn quickly and develop a bitter flavor.
- If the mixture looks lumpy or too dry, add a little more butter and stir until it comes together.
- Add the honey only after removing the mixture from the heat and allowing it to cool completely.
- For a dairy-free version, replace the butter with olive oil or a suitable plant-based butter.
- Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder if you prefer a spicier Japanese curry.
- Transfer the roux to a parchment-lined container and refrigerate for 3–4 hours until firm before cutting it into portions.
- Stir a portion of the roux into a simmering curry with vegetables, chicken, tofu, or paneer, adding water or stock as needed to achieve your desired consistency.
