As mentioned in a previous post, the cooler Autumn weather* means we get to enjoy Autumn food**! Tonight it was a big pot of Japanese Curry, also know as Curry Rice (カレーライス)! A family favorite for sure, especially paired with the perfect side dish: Macaroni Salad. Yummm!
* 96° F here in Texas
** we actually eat it year-round, but it feels special in Autumn
Although the weather here is still warm, the feeling of Autumn has arrived and that means it’s time to eat some cooler-weather food! Nabe is a hotpot type of dish, and today we had a yummy nabe of tofu, chicken meatballs, flat rice noodles, and assorted veggies. It was kind of a “clean out the fridge” meal, but oh-so-good!
The food was hearty and hot – in fact I was sweating a little bit during the meal. 😄
I hope you had a good day. またね～
Mariko had a couple of friends over to celebrate a birthday (socially-distanced outside on the deck), and one of the goodies on the menu were delicious oysters! Topped with ikura, tobiko, wasabi, and a dash of ponzu, it was excellent.
Somewhat related, here’s a photo I took of another sea-creature, also deceased:
I hope you had a good day! 😆
DIY sushi at home is so yummy! This time we had some shrimp tempura which was new for our sushi nite. I thought it was pretty good! My favorite has to be the hamachi with avocado and plenty of wasabi. But everything was delicious – what a treat! 🍣❤
Curry Nights are the best! ❤カレーライス
Lots of heat in this one. The eggs don’t look so great (a bit too hard and the eggshells stuck!) but they were yummy. As usual, I ate too much. 😋
