    When it’s hot I like snacking on frozen mango pieces. They sell bags of them in supermarkets. Frozen blackberries and raspberries are also great.

    I also like putting vegetables into curry and soup because personally I like my ratio of solid “food” to liquid curry/broth to be higher.

        Disclaimer: I make curry from premade pastes and blocks, not from scratch. I don’t love cooking that much, haha.

        For Japanese curry from curry blocks: Boil hard vegetables and meat in water until they’re mostly cooked, then stir in some curry blocks and make them dissolve in the hot water. Add soft vegetables. Adjust thickness and saltiness. Done.

        For Thai curry from curry paste: Boil hard vegetables and meat in some coconut milk until mostly cooked, then mix in some curry paste and the rest of the coconut milk. Add soft vegetables. Adjust spiciness. Done.

        Hard vegetables (vegetables that are hard to overcook):

        • potato
        • onion
        • carrot
        • mushroom

        Soft vegetables:

        • zucchini
        • broccoli
        • cauliflower
