Mayopon Chicken - Not your everyday chicken nuggets

Mayopon chicken is a Japanese dish that are almost similar with our Chicken nuggets here in the states. It uses ponzu-mayo sauce.

The sauce consists of sesame oil, soy sauce, lime, sesame seeds, mince garlic, sugar, green onion, and mince ginger.

Japanese Dry Curry

Curry is not an unusual dish for Japanese, and there are so many types of Japanese curry. One of them is Dry Curry. This curry has less liquid than normal curry and very thick. Quite nice when you top it off with sunny side up egg.
