Delicious Spicy Dry Curry with Shiitake powder

The synergy of Shiitake powder and meat flavor! Full of spices! Enjoy the aroma of authentic curry! When Shiitake powder contains enough water, its Umami-enhancing effect is maximized. Use Shiitake powder as early as possible in the cooking process rather than afterward. Instead of using 1 Tbsp dry Shiitake powder, use 1 tsp Shiitake powder soaked in water for 10 minutes to increase the dish's flavor and Umami taste furthermore. Fry the minced meat thoroughly until it is browned and the juices run clear, like when cooking a hamburger, to remove the odor.

Add the ingredients marked with ● and continue sauteing.

Add the water, Worcestershire sauce, and the ground meat you have browned previously to the pan. Bring the liquid to a boil and turn the heat down to low. Simmer gently for around 30 minutes.
