Curry


For several years, Hector and I enjoy eating Japanese curry. We discovered curry when we lived in Brentwood during the OJ Simpson hoopla and found Hurry Curry of Japan on Sawtelle. There was a small Japanese area of 2-3 blocks that offered different Japanese food and markets.
When we moved to Torrance, we went through the process of finding our favorites and it took a while for us to search for a curry place. Finally we found Curry House which is great! Then I discovered curry ramen at Kiraku, our favorite noodle house. A generous helping of curry is placed on top of ramen noodles and the soup takes on the curry flavor that is wonderful on a cold day.
Then one day when shopping at Mitsuwa, we should try to make our own curry. There are many brands of curry available in mild, medium and hot. So I tried making curry and it turned out yummy. I cook chicken or beef with some carrots and potatoes, follow the directions on the package and the curry comes out. Plus it doesn't take long to make (about 30 minutes) so it's a snap. Spoon some curry over rice and instant meal!
