    Japanese Pork Curry Bowl
    Yummly
    This flavorful, fragrant curry is a hearty comfort food. It makes a great meal all year round, but it's particularly wonderful on chilly nights when you want to enjoy a hearty bowl of something steaming. Pork and vegetables make up the recipe's foundation, but the flavor is truly elevated by Asian-inspired flavors like red miso, fresh ginger, and curry. Serve it over sticky Japanese rice for a one-bowl meal, or accompany it with a fresh salad or pickled vegetables. ## Japanese Curry Roux This recipe calls for Japanese brick curry, which can typically be found at most grocery stores or specialty Asian grocery stores. It's very easy to use — simply add it to your dish for that delicious curry flavor. These bricks are available in a hot, medium, or mild options. ## Japanese Curry Vs Indian Or Thai Curry You may be curious to know how Japanese curry is different from Indian curry. This classic Japanese food is thicker and has a milder flavor than other types, and is often made with curry roux or a curry sauce mix, as mentioned above. Many Indian and Thai curries are made with coconut milk and curry powder and other spices, instead of a curry brick. Many Japanese curries occasionally incorporate other ingredients such as Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, or tomato paste to deepen the flavor, but you can always opt to omit them, as this recipe suggests. ## Variations _Bread your pork:_ Breaded pork cutlets with curry sauce is very popular among Japanese cuisine. To try this option, coat your pork in panko breadcrumbs and fry it, before slathering in curry sauce and combining with the vegetables. _Serve over noodles instead of rice:_ If you don't like rice, you can top udon noodles, soba noodles, or rice noodles with your curry. Add a splash of soy sauce to for a bit of umami flavor to your bowl. _Use chicken breasts, steak or seafood instead of pork:_ Instead of pork, feel free to try a different type of protein, or even use vegetables like butternut squash or sweet potatoes. Just be sure to chop whatever protein or vegetables you use into bite-sized pieces. ## Make-Ahead Meal The total time to make this Japanese-style curry is less than an hour, making it easy to put together any night of the week. You can also choose to meal prep this dish over the weekend, and enjoy it all week long. The curry can be refrigerated for up to five days or frozen for up to three months.
    Taiwanese Spaghetti
    Food.com
    I recently started dabbling in Taiwanese cuisine and came across this recipe that is commonly made in Taiwan, comparable to the American spaghetti and meatballs made for children here in the States. It's considered a comfort food, served on either rice or Japanese somen noodles. It has a sweet taste to it so children like it, and you can make it with or without tofu. It is also traditionally served with sliced cucumber, but I have found that it doesn't make that much of a difference to the food. It is usually made with ground pork, but I avoid pork so I have only had it using turkey. I imagine it probably tastes just as good with ground beef as well. I will post my somen noodle sauce recipe soon, too - it tastes much better than plain somen noodles.

    Spam Katsu Musubi
    Food52
    So much of Hawaii comes from other places. The fragrant plumerias that line streets with white, yellow, and pink blossoms are originally from Central and South America. The fluorescent giant day geckos in neon green that dot the island homes are native to eastern Madagascar. Even the cuisine itself is a blend of influences from the different people who have populated the islands. And Spam katsu musubi is a reflection of that mixed history. The canned ham gained popularity during World War II due to soldiers sharing it wherever they were based. It spread throughout Asia and is now a beloved ingredient in the Philippines, South Korea, and beyond. Within the U.S., Hawaiians alone eat more than 7 million cans of Spam every year, more than anywhere else in the country. The original Spam musubi is made with Spam (of course), rice, nori, and sometimes a sweet soy glaze. It is believed to have been created by a Japanese woman living in Hawaii, but it gained even more traction after it first appeared at 7-Eleven Hawaii in 1996. There are countless variations out there, like longanisa, tofu, and tempura shrimp. But around 1997 is when Spam katsu musubi made its debut at 7-Eleven Hawaii. It includes all the same ingredients as the original. But—and this is the best part—the Spam itself is dredged in flour, egg, and crunchy panko, then fried until golden brown. It's a riff on Japanese katsu, a dish where the interior is juicy and the exterior is crisp, with an audible crunch. A former worker of Warabeya USA, the Japanese-owned company that makes the fresh food in 7-Eleven Hawaii, first made this dish as a lunch experiment, not intending for it to be an official item, but it soon became a staple on the menu, and is now the fourth-most-popular musubi variety.
    Mapo Tofu With Chinese Black Beans Sichuan Style
    Food.com
    Tofu (Japanese name for Bean Curd (Chinese name Dou Fo) is high in protein, inexpensive and blends very well with many foods. There are different variations of tofu from the cuisines of Korea, Japan and China. Plus each country has variations such as silken (very soft), soft, medium or firm tofu. I recommend using a medium or firm tofu and a Sichuan Spicy Noodle Sauce for this tasty dish. This dish can be very spicy or mild according to your personal taste� see notes below.
    Macau-Style Portuguese Chicken Rice
    Food52
    The only reason I went to Double Chin, a Hong Kong-style cafe in Boston's Chinatown, was to get an Instagram-worthy picture of their signature dessert. Yet by the time I left, it was another dish—a very un-photogenic one—that captured my heart, tummy, and soul. I don't even remember what entree I actually ordered for myself. (Thank you for letting me share your lunch, Alvin!) After one bite of this dish I knew I had to try to make it at home. The dish starts off with a layer of chicken fried rice, which is then topped with a mild coconut curry sauce and finished with a sprinkling of shredded cheese. Then everything goes under the broiler until it gets all bubbly and gooey. This is pure comfort food, my friends. I know it's kind of strange to have cheese on an otherwise Asian dish, but there's actually a pretty strong tradition of Western ingredients being assimilated into Eastern cuisine, long before the more recent spate of fusion restaurants began trending in the United States. Think of the ubiquitousness of mayonnaise in Japanese dishes, cheese on Korean ramyun and ddukbokki, sweetened condensed milk on Hong Kong-style French toast, or Spam in Hawaiian musubi. I thought it was interesting that when I was looking for recipes for this dish online, a lot of them just listed "shredded cheese" as the ingredient, without any reference to what kind of cheese. So I ended up referring to Lady and Pups' Macao's Portuguese Fried Rice Gratin recipe, because 1) I love everything else she does, and 2) it seemed the most similar to what I had at Double Chin. I used chicken instead of fish and marinated it beforehand. I used chicken breast because I prefer white meat, but feel free to use chicken thigh meat if you prefer dark meat. I also made a couple of other modifications to her recipe based on what I had on hand (fewer scallions, water instead of milk) and taste preferences (half the amount of shallots, provolone instead of Gruyere). Please note that this makes quite a bit of food. Mandy's original recipe said that it serves 2, but it would probably be more like 6 Joy-sized servings. And if you're wondering why it's called Portuguese chicken rice, I think it has to do with the fact that Macau was a Portuguese colony up until the end of the last century. Note: For a lazier version of this recipe, just use your local Chinese take-out fried rice and skip adding the chopped up chicken to the curry sauce. Because I totally understand if you just want to get this into your mouth as soon as possible.
    Collard Greens Ramen
    Food and Wine
    Chef Todd Richards is known for his personal, globally inspired take on Southern cuisine, and his Collard Greens Ramen is no exception. Riffing on a memorable bowl of yaka-mein he had as a child, Richards’ soup begins with a pot of collards and a generous pour of bourbon, which cooks down into an intense potlikker. Shichimi togarashi, a Japanese spice blend of dried orange peel, ginger, sesame seeds, nori, and a mix of dried chiles, finishes off each bowl. You can find it at Asian groceries, Whole Foods, and amazon.com. As Richards puts it, each ham-hock-enriched, noodle-laced bowl is a hearty thank you to his past—with a strong Southern accent.
    Soba with Slow Cooker Garlic and Ginger Pork
    Food Network
    Soba—and the substitute, ramen—as well as soy sauce, sesame, and ginger are all common in Japanese cooking, but this slow cooker dish pulls inspiration from a wide range of cuisines. Star anise and cinnamon are used in Vietnamese, Taiwanese and Chinese cooking, while sherry is from Spain and red pepper flakes are most closely associated with Italian and Italian-American food—you’ve no doubt seen a jar at your local slice shop.
