渔网面包，咖喱鸡（Roti Jala & Curry Chicken)

下了几天的雨，我完全不想出门。

可以躲在被窝里睡大觉是最好不过的。

儿子连续吃了几天的面食，想念白饭了。

我只好去超市买了一些肉回来。

心想这样的天气最好是吃咖喱鸡了。

我女儿马上有反应。

她很喜欢吃咖喱的，尤其日本咖喱。

她说，妈咪，可以做那个roti prata吗？

哦。。错了，应该是roti jala。她经常都搞错，所以必须问清楚。

每次我煮咖喱，她一定会想念那个“网”

还好roti jala不难做，容易成全。

再买个长长的Turkish Bread回来，可以沾咖喱酱吃，很好吃的。

我自己很喜欢，也希望大家会喜欢。
