Nikujaga, or meat and potatoes is an easy comforting Japanese stew made with beef, potatoes and carrots. Put the two together, and you have yourself a Japanese stew featuring meat and potatoes! Thinly sliced meat & potatoes are cooked in dashi-based stock and the sauce is not thick. I call it stew but Japanese Meat and Potato Stew is nowhere near the Western style stew. The cooking liquid is based on the usual Japanese flavours of slightly sweetened soy sauce with dashi stock, but is not.
