today's lunch

Today was beans curry with naan bread.

tonight dinner

I ate south Indian curry after months. I simmered curry with masra paste(I'd cooked), coconut milk, squash, and chicken. I served it with baguette. Not so hot, but spicy. I always make masara paste with onion, green pepper red pepper, garlic, ginger, the root of coriander, some whole spices(clove, black pepper, cardamom, cinnamon, laurel, and mustard seeds), and tomato. I liked this kinda curry.

tonight dinner

I cooked a south Indian curry with beans, masala paste I've cooked, and coconut milk. and I served it with yogurt and grilled baguette. The wine was a Rhone wine, Estezargues "Domaine des bacchantes 2004". It smells nicely, juicy, currant, spicy, and well, It's really good.

simmered bonito

I cooked simmered bonito and boiled green vegetable(kyo-mibuna, which is popular vegetable in Kyoto) as tomorrow lunch. this nimono's sacue was soy-sauce, mirin and sake. The fish meat crumpled up, so it doesn't look nice, but that's okay. I'm the one who eat this dish.
I also cooked and ate curry like Channa Masala. I simmered garbanzo beans and "tora mame"(one of Japanese kidney beans) with masala sauce and coconut milk. I ate it with yogurt and bread.

common curry in Japan

People cooked curry like this in Japan. There are many curry pastes here or there and it's easy to make curry. just use ingredients what you want, and added water, boil up, and added the paste after minutes. My parents prefer this curry to some Indian curry that I cook sometimes. They aren't used to eat those spicy foods. Well, That's okay. People serve this curry with some pickles like rakkyo and fukujin-zuke. rakkyo is kinda Japanese shallot. and fukuzin-zuke is.., well, see this. :P
And The salad was boiled lettuce and tofu. the dressing was aji-pon, which means a mixture of soy sauce, citrus vinegar and bonito flavour. very common sauce. people use it with Nabe cuisines, salad, and some foods. little sour, and nice citrus flavor. the aji-pon made in Mitsukan is popular, but some people get more nicer ones and little expensive.

vegetable curry

Tonight curry was cooked with all vegetables, mushroom, potato, broccoli,broccoli stem and some coriander leaves. it's not bad at all.

rose and curry

I enjoyed curry with a rose wine. I liked L'engarra's rose. this one is the downgrade rose and doesn't smell like the other upgrade rose smells like strawberry though, I like this too. you can enjoy casually with this wine. In passing, tonight curry was shrimps and bamboo shoots.
