INTRODUCTION

This is not a new recipe. This is a recipe that I designed for a magazine one year ago under the theme “one dish baked meals”. It is the baking of Japanese curry chicken rice and transform this dish into a more delicious dish.

I have forgotten about this recipe until one member of Facebook Group, Ms. Jo Lim read the magazine and prepare the meal. She said that the dish is very delicious and that reminded me that I have yet to put this recipe on records in this blog. Thanks Ms. Jo for reminding me this recipe and I fully appreciate it.

Japanese curry chicken baked rice blends very well with cheeses and my kids are fighting over it. I have decided to prepare because I have some leftover cheeses in the fridge and I have no plan to use it.

Because of her reminder, I purposely prepare my own Japanese curry roux. Homemade curry roux has many advantages and that includes the ability to adjust the spiciness and it is way much cheaper than what is sold in the market. If you are interested, you can refer to this post: I Have Decided To Make My Own Japanese Curry Roux–Japanese Curry Chicken Rice.

I made a mistake during plating and I am totally not satisfy with the images. How could I use black sesame seeds as a decorating items? I told my Facebook group member that it resembles black ants eating my cheese.. Ha-ha. Members joked about it and they immediately gave me suggestions like using some parsley to cover it up, put some white sesame seeds to cover etc.. but the rice was already in the stomach of my kids..

Well, I told my members that those readers who have followed me long enough will not mind trying this recipe.. They are fully aware of my carelessness. I am sure they can take these imperfections.
