Cream Stew - クリームシチュー

Cream Stew - クリームシチュー

This is an easy Japanese stew that is called "Cream Stew". We can prepare without a roux, but normally we Japanese use a box of roux like a photo. You might get a roux at an Asian grocery store. Today I'm going to cook using roux, but I'll show you how to cook "Cream Stew" without roux in the next time.
