Curry Udon Recipe ( カレーうどん )

TRADITIONAL JAPANESE RECIPE: This Udon Noodles are soaked into a rich Curry Sauce... a popular recipe in Japan.

Curry Udon (カレーうどん) is a bit more like Curry Rice but some prefer Udon because of the creamy texture Udon and Curry combine have.

Japanese Curry is not as Indian Curry, Japanese people tend to alter everything to suit the national food preferences, so also the Curry won't be what you might expect. Japanese Curry is a lot thicker, milder and sweeter than its Indian counterpart.
