Why are you trying to keep your rice out of your curry, who eats them separately, that's insane

[–] raman_klogius@ani.social 8 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Because I like to eat fluffy rice, not soaking wet rice.

[–] bahbah23@lemmy.world 22 points 3 months ago (1 children)

But the whole point of rice is to bulk out more expensive food. Even the expensive Japanese sticky rice is just there to stretch out the actual food.

Well our primary diet is rice lol

[–] Slovene@feddit.nl 3 points 3 months ago

Well then put it into a separate bowl.

Seriously. Soak my rice in my curry, soak my rice in my butter chicken, and soak my rice in my caldo and menudo. That's what that shit is for!

Cheese with Japanese curry? Sounds pretty whacky, whatever shape it's in.

Also there's an elegant solution to keeping some rice visible out of the curry and it doesn't involve any extra ingredients.

Cheese curry is pretty common these days. The cheap chains like Yoshinoya and Sukiya have it, as does Coco's.

I don't know about Japanese curry with cheese but it sounds pretty good

I really like saag paneer which is like an Indian curry with firm cheese blocks

[–] BigBenis@lemmy.world 23 points 3 months ago

Okay but isn't it the whole purpose of the rice, to be flooded with curry?

Why would I want to keep the curry out of my rice? I think the cheese jacks would be better equipped to stop tanks from invading my curry because that would actually ruin the food.

Caltrop cheese

Captain Janeway doesn't have time to worry about your curry.

[–] latenightnoir@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Nnnoooo, god damn it! I was in the midst of rewatching Voyager, and now you've seared "Janeway cheese" all across my perception! Thanks...

All cheese is tetrapod cheese

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 2 points 3 months ago (2 children)

There's plant-based cheese ...

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yes but that’s also made by tetrapods

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 3 points 3 months ago
[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Maybe to you there is. I've never met one that is worthy of the name cheese.

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 3 points 3 months ago

Never even tried any of them, because I have yet to see one that isn't just fat (mammal cheese has fat and protein). But I don't like Harzer Roller (a stinky soft cheese), either, and yet most people insist on calling it "cheese".

[–] 2ugly2live@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

And here I was pouring my curry directly over my rice, like a fool.

[–] RogueBanana@lemmy.zip 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That's an insane amount of curry and cheese for that tiny portion of rice.

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

That half of the plate is really deep.

Only some of us are

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

How the hell could a tetrapod

Be able to blend in?

[–] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 months ago

Hast thou considered the tetrapod cheese?
