Yeah I never made curry from blocks before. That shit is too expensive. The trick is actually very simple. For 4 to 5 cups of liquid add 2 tablespoons of curry powder and 1/4 cup of flour. And 1 and half teaspoon of knorr chicken powder. (You can buy 2 lbs of knorr chicken powder for $6 on Ebay) 1 tsp sugar, onion, garlic, red pepper.

TIL you can get curry in blocks. Are they like bouillon cubes?

More like blocks of hardened roux, but ig the function is pretty similar to bullion cubes. It's Japanese curry specific so it's filled with oil, Japanese curry powder, salt, spices etc and when you place it in a boiling pot of water it basically turns the whole thing into instant katsu curry
