日式咖喱乌冬面 Japanese Curry Udon

在外头吃日本餐时,我都会点饭便当。
这只因两个原因。
第一,我觉得日本餐的饭便当比较好吃。
第二,我觉得在外头吃乌冬面很不方便,因为乌冬面滑溜溜的,好难夹起来。
呵呵。。
印象中,距离我上次吃乌冬面的日子,已经很久很久很久很久了!
这次,在超市买来了乌冬面,准备随时可以来个自家炮制的《日式咖喱乌冬面》。

这款《日式咖喱乌冬面》跟之前的《日式咖喱鸡饭 》做法大同小异。
只不过这次我想要快速地煮好这一餐,于是,我先将马铃薯和红萝卜丁先用一锅水煮至半熟,才加入咖喱里面继续焖煮至软。
虽然做法有少许更动,但成品的味道并没什么分别。
都是一样好好吃!

材料(1人份):
乌冬面                      1 人份
鸡肉片                      1 片(切块)
马铃薯                      1 个(去皮,切块)
红萝卜                      1/2 根(去皮,切块)
花椰菜                      2 小朵
洋葱                          1/2 颗(切丝)
蒜茸                          1 tbsp(可有可无)
日式咖喱块            1 块
清水                          适量

做法:
  1. 热一锅水,将乌冬面煮约2分钟,沥干备用。
  2. 将马铃薯和红萝卜丁放入水中,煮约4分钟或至半熟,沥干备用。
  3. 倒入少许油在水中,将花椰菜烫约1分钟,取出备用。
  4. 热一个平底锅,放少许油,爆香洋葱和蒜茸。
  5. 加入马铃薯,红萝卜丁和鸡肉块,炒至鸡肉变白。
  6. 倒入适量的清水,淹过食材。
  7. 加入日式咖喱块,压至溶解。
  8. 以中小火煮至咖喱汁慢慢变浓稠,再把乌冬面倒入锅里。
  9. 当咖喱汁收干至想要的浓稠度,即可熄火,盛盘。
  10. 最后,放上花椰菜装饰即可。
