Japanese-Style Chicken Curry Rice
Comments: In Japan, curry tastes very different to what we are used to, yet it is really delicious. Japanese curry is sweeter, darker, and smells stronger, somwhat similar to the original Indian curry, than Korean curry. There were two choices in terms of spicy level; here we use medium hot, but if you are used to Korean food, it will not be hot enough so you better use the hot one.
