Ramen: Springy noodles are soaked in various soup bases such as miso and tonkatsu and topped with an assortment of ingredients such as chashu (pork belly), Ajitama egg (flavoured egg), nori (dried seaweed), negi (spring onion) and menma (seasoned bamboo shoots).
Curry Rice: Not to be mistaken for Indian curry, the Japanese have developed their own form of the dish that is thicker and milder in heat. Consisting of spices, meat and vegetables, it is usually served with fluffy white rice and sometimes with crispy katsu (deep-fried cutlet).
Udon: Thick, chewy noodles are encased in a mild, savoury broth that can be hot or cold. Commonly topped with ingredients such as beef and tempura, this flavourful dish serves as a comforting meal when you want something simple yet wholesome.
