[udonboi]

Thanks Nagoyankee, ozkai and Kyousuke for your replies. I was just inquiring about alternatives, because sometimes I may not have all the ingredients on hand. I would prefer to have the big 3 veggies before I start my curry. Also, I want to mention, that even though I can make the curry sauce from scratch, I do buy the roux blocks and make it that way because it is quicker and more consistent in flavor.

Also, I prefer, if I am making "curry udon", I will actually put the fresh noodles in the bowl and just pour the curry sauce and vegetables over the noodles. When I did this, a Japanese friend starting spouting off about how it is not authentic because I didn't stir the noodles in with the curry and vegables??? How this makes it not authentic is beyond me. I would think this is personal preference.
