The Inside Scoop

Did you know?

Invented in Tokyo in 1927, curry pan has been a bestseller ever since. The crispy fried exterior gives way to a warm, savory curry filling — curry lava inside. Proceed with caution (and napkins).

How to eat

  • 1The outside is deep-fried and can be slightly oily, so keep it in the wrapper or use a napkin to hold it.
  • 2Bite carefully! If it's freshly baked or heated up, the curry inside might be scorching hot.
  • 3It's an intensely savory experience, so having a cold drink handy is highly recommended.
