Handcrafted Japanese Knife Giveaway! {Update: Giveaway has closed, the winner is Monica O’Sullivan!} The last time we asked my mother to bring a kitchenware item back from Japan, it was “just” a Yakitori charcoal grilling station. “It’s only 10 kg (20 lb)!” my sister cajoled. “C’mon mum!” We were only joking. Though perhaps not excessively heavy, it’s about 1 m / 3 feet long and given she was also manhandling her ski gear, we didn’t actually think she would lug one back for us....

Growing up in the 80’s as a child in Australia, the food my mother made was not normal by Australian standards. I was that kid who was sent to school with sushi rolls and bento boxes, when all I wanted was Vegemite sandwiches (Australia’s answer to America’s PB&J). Little did I know – I was ahead of the pack. Dining every night on food that is now “all the rage”....

This seasoning brings out the flavors of the whole spices, garlic, red chilies and curry leaves....

It’s a fragrant aromatic spiced rice (but not spicy) combined with sweet crunchy onion. You make your own fried onion in the authentic version, and it’s worth the effort when you have time on your hands. But if you don’t have time, a near perfect substitute is store bought crunchy Fried Shallots which nowadays you can purchase from the Asian section of most grocery stores....
