It's beginning to feel like fall around here. In just a matter of days the temperature dropped by twenty degrees. And with the cold weather, I'm starting to crave comfort food such as spaghetti, shepherd's pie and Japanese curry. I never thought I would think of Japanese curry as a comfort food but some how it won over my heart or should I say stomach? Japanese Curry Recipe

makes 4-6 servings
Ingredients:adapted from the S & B recipe

Looks delish! Love a good golden yellow curry :)
I would think of Japanese curry as a comfort food. Well, I guess it's because I am a Japanese. I also think of Japanese Ramen as my comfort good. Do you like Ramen?
Nom!
Thank you for reminding me I have everything I need to make this tonight. One question -- are the apples fresh or stewed that you serve on the side?
Little Happy Things,
Love Ramen! I'm just not good at making it. I need a good recipe for that one. However, I do make Udon a lot. That's another favorite in our house.
Little Ol' Liz,
The apples are raw, we cut them up into tiny cubes and sprinkle them on top of the curry.
oh maaannn that looks awesome. i think i know what ill be hungry for tonight.
ahhh yes! golden curry. i have used this many times, but had forgotten about it.
thanks for the reminder.
I couldn't get Golden curry last week in Oz so I bought a Vermont Curry instead- Just as nice, but perhaps a little sweeter!
I love reading your blog via email and seeing what you are up to in the USA. I want to visit Daiso- we don't have it here in Australia. My friend Sellina is in Japan at the moment with a school group (she is a teacher of a Japanese language immersion group of Australian teenagers) and I am envious!! But have her on the trail of Mama Cafe and Cotton Time mags for me!!
Ack! I am not going to be able to make it until lunch now. I LOVE curries. Yum.
