Curry was introduced to Japan pretty late (1800s?) and was big in the armed forced, then started getting really popular (I imagine because the soldiers came back with a hankering for curry).

As to why they like it so much? I mean, why do we like it so much? It's fucking delicious.

I'm surprised it isn't more popular in NA. It's easily made in restaurants in huge batches that can have their portions changed for the individual (e.g made hotter). We have a fair number of curry places where I live, but we also have a 50%-ish Asian population. I grew up in a 99% European-descent city and never saw a hint of curry until I moved away.

Ah fuck I think I've been screwing up. I've been almost caramelizing my onions, adding meat till browned, then adding garlic, then veg / spices.

In retrospect, this has compromised the browning of the meat...

Pic related, as I think it's probably a terrible way of making curry.
