This vegan Japanese curry is pure comfort food with tender veggies in a sweet and savory curry sauce and served over a bowl of steaming rice. So incredibly satisfying!
Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large pot.
Add the onion slices and cook 4-5 minutes, until tender. Add the garlic and cook for an additional minute, stirring constantly.
Add the carrots, potatoes, and apple and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the vegetable broth, soy sauce, and tomato paste and bring the mixture to a boil.
Turn down to a simmer and cook for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the veggies are tender.
Break up the curry roux cubes and add them to the pot. (Note: These sometimes come packaged as small cubes and sometimes as one large brick. Either way, you can gently crumble it into the pot.)
Stir to combine, and cook an additional 5-10 minutes.
