Nikujaga (Meat-Potato)

I would like to talk about Japanese food "NIKUJAGA" today.

Nikujaga means "meat-potato" in English. Yes, it is basically cooked from 

beef and potatoes. 

Japanese people use sliced of beef or pork, potatoes, onion, carrot, and sometimes konnyaku with sweetened soy sauce. 

I can say no one does not know Nikujaga in Japan.

It is almost Traditional home Japanese food. 

Nikujaga came from chefs of Japanese navy in the late 19th century. 

It is similar with beef stewed served in British Royal Navy.

Nikujaga was very famous among those people a long time ago because of

good nutritional value and the ease to cook.

I love Nikujaga since I was child because my mother often cooks it with rice and miso soup 

during our dinner time. Whenever I eat Nikujaya at outside of my home, It reminds me my mother.

Lets try Nikujaga Tonight!!!
