Japanese Curry Rice with Carrots and Potatoes

Japanese home curry is mild, thick and quietly sweet. Chunks of beef chuck, carrot and potato go soft in a gravy built on long-cooked onions and curry roux, with a square of dark chocolate for depth. Served with short-grain rice, furikake and ruby fukujinzuke pickles, it is a weekday bowl that tastes even better as leftovers.
