Chapter 52: Curry rice and fairy-san!



Chapter 52: Curry rice and fairy-san!

Now, we’ve reached the top of the mountain Caraville where fairies live.

The top is like an open plateau.

It’s about noon now and we left in the morning.

The orphanages girl’s stomach soon will start making sounds.

We’ll take a slight rest from potion creating.

I immediately brought out the stove from the baggage and spread it out and started a low fire.

Today’s cuisine would be that which is greatly popular in my previous world.

“Master, I can smell a very strong smell of spices! Furthermore there are alot!”

Lucia who was a dog eared beast-girl immediately smelled it with her good nose.

Her tail was flapping back and forth and playfully like a dog lined up next to me. She peeked up inside the stove with a great interest.

That’s right, this time’s cuisine will be using a lot of spices.

That’s why I thought that she wouldn’t come close to me with her nose… But surprisingly she’s all right.

Rather, she’s on top of the stove with spices and looking at me with zeal.

I don’t understand why you’re looking at me.

“What’re you going to make with this, Masatsugu-sama?”

Elin abruptly came on the other side of Lucia on the pot and asked me while looking at it.

She should be an elf princess but apparently she’s not concerned about the strong smell of spices.

Rather she was curious with her ears flapping and came close to me.

There’s no reason to come to me but probably she’s excited about seeing this cuisine for the first time.

“Oi,oi don’t get so close when the spices spring up it’s dangerous.”

I said that but both of them still didn’t leave.

They instead “Then, you should protect me.” and “I’m scared too!” said that and clinged behind my back.

Sigh, was my way of saying it bad or did I not properly convey why separating would be bad.

Well this time there won’t be much use of oil and won’t be that much dangerous.

In the first place, why you need to cling to me just to watch me cook is a mystery to me.

While thinking that, Shii in a spirit form came flying over.

“Masatsugu-san, what are you making this time? You’ve been collecting spices since a while ago.”

While saying that she was resting on my back. Good grief, you’re truly a friendly Spirit Deity. For who’s this?

Fumu, anyway the people around me has increased.

Well, it’s natural. Otherwise they wouldn’t be able to observe their most loved cooking.

But, when frying spices it can be a little sweltering…

“Oi, you girls isn’t it suffocating with all of you clinging to me? Move a bit…”

“No, it’s fine here!” “Same for me!” “Me too~”

All of them instantaneously shot it down.

Sigh, as I thought when it comes to food they’re devoted.

I wryly smiled and answered Shii’s question from earlier.

“What are you creating?”

“Right now I’m making a dish called Curry. In my previous world it’s a cuisine with high popularity.”

When I said that the girls throat and belly reflexively roared.

Everyone’s face was red, having an appetite for food is best. The highest priority of my orphanage is to fill the bellies of the girls.

While we were having a conversation, Laara was stealthily listening to it and came over here.

“Masatsugu-dono. Could that high popular cuisine possibly be the most delicious in your world!?”

I heard it somewhat desperate.

By the way, she was holding to my hem. Is there a meaning in this?

Well it’s fine. More than that, the best one…? Un, it can be said that for this one cuisine…

“Well, that’s right?”

I answered vaguely leaving it for later.

“To think that I can eat Master’s most delicious food in his hometown…”

“Thank you very much Forest God! Elin is happy!”

“I’m glad I lived 100, 000 years~”

“I cannot wait! I want to eat it fast!”

The girls reaction was dramatic and they opened their mouths excited.

“Oioi, you girls it’s just curry? Here, look at Clarissa’s calm example.”

I was amazed and looked at the usual calm girl…

“Dwarfs from now on shouldn’t just make items in the workshop but also learn from Master and cooking too.”

She said something about the meaning of a dwarfs life in spite of her plain tone.

Yup, please come back.

Well, at any rate they’re having fun. I’m more than happy to cook. It’s a grateful feeling.

Okay, I fired up myself and once more again faced the spices in the frying pot.

This time I’ll be using 7 ingredients.

To bring out the taste of curry you need cumin, cardamom, cinnamon, coriander and garlic.

And then for the colour you need turmeric and for the spicy taste you need chili pepper.

“Fuumu. You’re using a dizzying amount of spices.”

Laara said it with admiration.

“No, truthfully you use a lot more spices.”

But I said that and this time she was surprised.

That’s right. I’ve been looking spices for a while but several days ago I’ve finally managed to gather up spices to create a “minimal” curry and decided to challenge myself this time.

Originally speaking you would use a lot more spices like ginger and black pepper but I haven’t found them in this world.

But with the current collected spices I should be able to make a curry flavour.

“Looks difficult.”

Clarissa murmured looking at the situation.

“No, it’s nothing like that.”

I shook my head. At first sight it looks difficult but in truth it’s simple.

To make a Curry Roux I need to mix several spices and fry them on a low simmering fire so that they won’t be burnt in the pot or the frying pan.

Now that the curry flavor is done next is the hardening of the roux.

The fire should burn like this slowly…

“Yeah, a nice smell is coming out”

The moment the spices were mixed a unique smell was coming out.

“The drooling won’t stop!”

“Lucia-chan… I understand you!”

Both of them were looking at the Curry like they were looking prey. Oi oi, you can’t eat yet.

I understand your feelings. The curry already started giving out a nice smell.

This is mostly the smell of cumin spice.

It’s just such an important spice that you can not make curry without it and when I discovered it I was certain of victory.

Yeah, it’s a really nice smell.

I was becoming a little hungry myself.

Not good, I have to continue cooking.

“Well, after this the cooked vegetables and meat will be added to the curry powder mixed with oil and roux flour.”

It changed quickly into a beautiful colour.

And then cooking it all together… Completed!

Went better than I thought. The appearance and smell became of a perfect curry!

“Wa~ I want to eat it~ Hurry~ Hurry~”

Shii in an impatient manner was twirling her arms on my neck… Wait a bit. It’s the vital tasting.

I took a mouthful spoon to do tasting.

“Delicious!”

It’s a perfect curry! I didn’t think it would be this delicious on the first try. I’m crying of joy.

I feel like there’s a bit lacking to the taste probably because scrimping on the spices.

I lack the spices that give the depth of flavour like allspice and laurel. Can’t be helped really, I wasn’t able to discover them.

Well, at any rate it has the flavor of curry.

It should be enough with reproducing it to this extent in this world.

Since I came here, I didn’t miss my homeland but after eating curry for first time in awhile I was nostalgic about my homeland. I don’t feel about returning back especially.

The vital part is the starving orphanage girls. Will it satisfy the girls tongues though?

I was worried about the taste and to their plates I brought up cooked rice and put the curry on it.

It’s the debut of this world’s first Curry and Rice.

“Okay, you can eat!”

The waiting girls began to eat greedily.

“Master, this is amazing! To think there was this delicious food in this world!”

“This is the best amongst all I’ve eaten so far!”

“It’s kinda spicy but it’s so addictive~ This is a first~”

“This is delicious! I can eat it as much as I can! Absolutely bring this to the Demon King country!”

“Please teach me. Spread the recipe widely and to the dwarves!”

And said so.

I wryly smiled at their exaggerated reply.

“It’s relieving knowing that it suits your tastes, it’s just curry.”

I said that but the girls were eating a trance and didn’t reach their ears.

“ *Munch* *Munch*! Buha, my spoon won’t stop!”

“Us being able to eat such delicious food is truly happiness, Lucia-chan!”

“Eating this every day is fine~”

“I approve! Every day will be a curry party!”

“I approve vehemently. Every day will be enjoyable. I want to eat it tomorrow with bread!”

They continued giving high praises.

Sigh, you’re all exaggerating.

But the girls saying it’s delicious that’s the best. I was satisfied and started to eat my own curry but at that time.

“Please help me… travelers”

Saying that was one noble looking fairy that was flying unsteadily.
