Curry Rice
I think that Japanese people really like curry because there are many special curry restaurants and curry powders at grocery stores. All seasons including summer are good for eating curry.
As for my house, there is always curry powders.
I add it after I boil various vegetables such as onions, potatoes, carrots and eggplants. I can cook ten dishes per one powder but my family and I eat all of them in one night.
I also have instant curries at home.
It’s very easy to cook them because I only need to boil them for three minutes and put on rice.
The taste isn’t bad.
The best friend of curry is a pickled shallot which my mother cooked. It tastes sour and a bit hot.
PS: My diary is full of food. Lol.
Do you add curry powder to the water when you are boiling vegetables, or sprinkle it over them afterwards?
Yes, we usually add the curry powder to the water. The water melts the curry powder(roux). It’s easy to cook delicious curry.
Thanks! I may be experimenting.
Curry is amazingly great food. It is easy to cook , but it makes everybody happy. I have never met anybody who dislikes curry!! Your blog makes me want to have curry for dinner!!
隠し味に何かつかわれますか？ 私はチョロッとおしょゆうを仕上げに入れます。チョコレート、ヨーグルトを入れ人もいますね。楽に作れて、手抜きと思わせない味になってくれるところが素晴らしい！カレールーは日本人の発明だと思うのですが？？ らっきょうとカレーは最高のペアですね！！

I agree with you. Thank you so much. 前は、隠し味を入れてた気もしますが、最近は、いろいろ面倒になってきて特になにもいれてませんが、充分、美味しい味になります。そうですね、カレーライス、カレールーは日本人が進化させたようですね。
らっきょう及び福神漬けは、カレーになくてはならない存在ですね。 :D
Food is great and a very important part of any country’s culture! *^v^*
I love Japanese curry, I prefer it to the Indian one. I buy the instant spicy type and add to stewed meat and vegetables, yummy! *^v^*
I think so. Thanks. I like both Indian and Japanese one.
Your taste also sound yummy. The vegetables(especially onions) are necessary for the curry.
My son and I love Japanese curry. We are able to buy Japanese curry powders at our local Asian supermarket. Yet another one of your posts that is making me really hungry …
How nice! You must be able to cook the similar taste curry of ours.
I can live in Canada thanks to the supermarket.
“I think that Japanese people really like curry.” So do foreigners in Japan: we love Japanese curry! CoCo Ichibanya is everybody’s favourite restaurant!
I usually buy instant curry but sometimes I make it from scratch. That’s nice, too. (I just can’t use vegetables from my own garden. Sigh.)
That’s good. There is also CoCo Ichibanya near to my office and I go to the shop sometimes.
The taste of the instant curry improved very much than before.
It’s okay if there aren’t any vegetables because the curry powder includes a small amount of the vegetables.
This looks really delicious Cocomino – especially the next to last photo! Yumm. And I love your food posts, always good to learn a new way of preparing one of my favorite things… FOOD.
Thanks much. That’s encouraging. I still have many food articles to post.
I like curry as long as it’s not too hot.
Thanks. I think so. It’s important that it’s not too hot.
I was just at a Japanese curry restaurant today for lunch, here in Korea. Not sure if it was authentic, but it was really good. We usually eat instant curry too. Pretty good and very easy ^^
That’s good. There are many kinds of curry in Japan. So I think that there aren’t any authentic curries.
Thank you for stopping by.
That’s delicious!!!
Yes, thanks.
That looks delicious. I like curry
Thanks. Glad to know that:D
I had curry for dinner tonight
It’s quite a popular dish!
How nice. Curry sounds to be popular food all the world.
私は辛いカレーのほうが好きです。
インドのとかマレーシアのなど好きです。
日本のはちょっと甘すぎると思います。
でも、ときどき家で日本のカレーを作ります。
確かに、辛いのを食べ慣れてる人は、日本のは甘すぎますね。私も辛いのが好きですが子どもにあわせて甘いのばかり作っています。
My favourite food – curry! Nice to see you enjoy it too!
That’s great. Curry is wonderful food.
We like it too, but not the hottest ones.
I see. The hottest curry needs a lot of water.
Looks delicious! I like curry too
How nice. Thanks.
I love Japanese style curry rice and it is cheap to eat at restaurants. One of my favourite budget Japanese restaurants is CoCo Ichiban Curry House. We also make it at home with the curry roux that you can buy at the supermarket. A little secret is to add some apple or chocolate for added sweetness
Coco Ichiban is certainly popular among us.
I often hear about the apple and the chocolate. I’ll try it. Thank you.
I’ve recently been missing Japanese curry.
I hope that you’ll eat Japanese curry, soon.
I am starting to think you need another blog for cooking because your presentation is very good.
This looks delightful! It must have tasted wonderfully!
Thanks a lot. Yes, it’s a great dish, I think.
This post made me really hungry! I have a package of S&B Golden Curry Sauce Mix. I think I will buy some shrimp or chicken, and cook it with onions and the sauce mix, and make some rice — ooh, yum.
Do you like shrimp or chicken curry better?
I see. Sure, I like both shrimp and chicken. I often buy chicken because it’s cheaper than shrimp.
Golden Curry is so nice.
Thanks for posting this. I love curry – but it has to be non-spicy or very mildly spicy, or I can’t tolerate it. I like the Japanese curry because the ones I’ve had aren’t very spicy. My hubby has concocted a non-spicy curry mix that I love. The tumeric, typically in curry, is also a very healthy spice.
Thank you. As you said, Japanese curry isn’t too hot and moderate.
Tumeric is also popular in our country and I can find it at super market easily.
Happy Curry Life!
初めて日本のカレーを食べたときにびっくりしました。あれ！これはカレー！？全然辛くないですね（汗）私は辛い料理が大好きだからインド、タイとマレーシアのカレーのほうが好きですね。。。
私は、日本のカレーに慣れているのでインドとかのカレーはとても辛く感じます。もちろん辛いのも美味しいですけどたくさん水が必要になります。:)
That looks good for an instant curry! Yummy!
Thanks. Yes, it’s delicious and convenient.
Yum – this looks very tasty. You photo’s always make the foods you showcase look delicious.
Good post ….
Isadora
Many thanks. That’s encouraging. I’ll post photos of food much more.
My kids love this curry.
That’s good. Thanks.
I’m really hungry. My wife makes curry often. It’s one of my favourite foods.
That’s great. Your wife must be a great cook.
She is! I’m very lucky
Your diary must be full of delicious entries!
With all the food photographs you share I don’t think I have ever seen one that didn’t look wonderful! I sure wish I had your great skill with cooking!
Many thanks. It’s very fun to cook, take photos, eat and share food.
So I can’t stop enjoying food.
Ilove curry. I am of Jamaican parentage, so I grew up on curry. Curry rice, curry goat, curry chicken. It’s zest supreme.
It’s a great kinds of curry. Yummy.
