Japanese Curry with Sturgeon Over Rice

As if I needed more reason to try harder to land my first keeper sturgeon... Here's one more incentive...... Japanese Curry with Sturgeon over rice.

If you like curry, you'll love this quick recipe.  And even if you're not a fan of the more common Indian curry, you owe it to yourself to try Japanese curry which has a thicker, sweeter, and milder sauce.  Sturgeon works well with this recipe because of it's firm texture.  I'm sure halibut or ling cod would work well too.

The key to this recipe is a good curry sauce mix.  I use S&B's Golden Curry sauce mix found at most Asian grocery stores.  The easy directions are on the back of the box.  You basically saute all your ingredients in a large pot, add water and sauce mix, let it simmer, then plate it up over a bed of rice and enjoy!

Here are the ingredients I used:

-S&B Golden Curry sauce mix
-cubed sturgeon steaks
-chopped onions
-chopped bell peppers
-baby carrots

any left overs?

Maybe... if you can get here quick.  I made it for the first time last night.  My wife and I scarfed it all up.  It was so good, I made another pot for lunch today.  I don't think it's going to last either.

Looks really good, I would substitute fish stock for half the water added. Comparing to chicken currrey at my favorite Asian take-out, they add potatoes and their curry sauce is not as thick as yours and lighter perhaps from some cocoanut milk added too. Worth testing-out a combination.
Is corn starch parrt of the ingredients of the mix? That's what's thickening it when temp comes to a boil.

KB, I can tell you enjoy good Asian food from your comments.  I was thinking about using fish stock instead of water too.  I'll have to try it next time.  Adding potatoes is also a good idea.  I know it's traditional in curry.

ya, just wait for my Asian women post

I had some  good curry snapper the other day at a restaurant.  It looked like it had been dusted with curry and fried, served with some  green peppers, sliced onions, green onions, I think mushrooms all sauteed then maybe a little wine added for some sauce. Served over rice.  Just a light curry flavor.

Sounds delicious.
Hmmm... that just gave me an idea.  I may try something like this and if it turns out, I'll post a recipe.

Chuck,

Nice dish. If I ever catch a sturgeon I will try it.   We should have an Iron Chef cook off one day.  Maybe work in teams. I love to cook, but chuck you have the seafood thing covered.   My wife always asks for your Panko/tempura fish.  However my friends think I am a genius. Thanks!


Chef,
You can only judge. 

Mooch you get to be taste!

Looks very good!
did you put the sturgeon into the source to cook it together, or cooked separate?

Naoaki,

The curry sounds good, but you should also bust out that smoker I gave Jim and smoke some of that sturgeon of yours.

that's right!   but I don't know how to use it...  I just gonna wait until Jim comes home...

You simply heat up the oil, stir fry the veggies and cubed sturgeon, then add water and curry mix.  Super simple.... and tasty!

Thanks, ChuckE!  I use to eat the curry alot.  Katsu (fried pork) curry is my favorite!  I'll try it next week when Jim comes home.
