Yaki karē pan (baked curry bread)

Curry bread (カレーパン, karē pan) is a popular Japanese food. It consists of Japanese curry wrapped in a piece of dough, which is then coated in bread crumbs and deep fried.[1] On occasion it is baked instead of deep fried, but deep frying is the most common method of cooking. Curry bread is usually found in bakeries and convenience stores.

In popular culture

  • Karē pan man (lit. 'Curry bread man') is one of the superheroes in Anpanman. He has a head made out of curry bread. [2] In addition to his special moves, "Curry Punch" and "Curry Kick", he also attacks by spraying hot curry from his mouth onto his opponent.
