9th Meal
Clumsy Girl and Curry Rice
It was unexpected that the high school girl who promised to teach her how to cook—Apparently her name was Asahi Mahiru, although we both forgot to introduce ourselves—brought a friend, but it was rather convenient for me.
Even though I had no ill intentions, it was still a little problematic for a high school girl to visit a college student's place alone.
Since Asahi herself didn't seem to have any sense of danger, I guess her friend, Kotsubaki, was probably more concerned about her being invited to a suspicious college student's house and followed her here.
She is a good friend.
(I'm not going to let her make a bad dish for such an important friend.
So, I have to put in a lot of effort too.)
As I have said many times before, my cooking experience is only half a year, and I am not at a level where I can teach others.
Nevertheless, I said to Asahi-san, “I'll teach you how to cook,” because I thought that my diet is better than the convenience store bento’s and prepared foods that she usually eats
So I thought I'd start out by teaching her something safe and something she could make consistently, like stir-fried vegetables but…
(These ingredients…They are totally trying to make a curry…)
I look at Asahi-san as she triumphantly pulls out a box of curry roux and ingredients from a plastic bag.
Potatoes, carrots, onions, chicken–these are the ingredients listed on the back of a commercial curry roux package.
I mean, this girl must have bought it straight from the package.
No, as a beginner's dish, there is no item better suited than curry.
You use a knife, you use fire, and above all, you don't make mistakes that often.
Because it is a dish with a strong flavor, you can cheat as much as you want.
However, in this case, there was one big problem.
(Why aren’t you trying to make a dish that could be consumed in one meal…?)
Of course, stewed dishes like curry and stew are not meant to be served to a single person.
A box of roux can easily serve about 10 people.
So the great appeal of this kind of dish is that once it is made, it can be eaten for a while.
But…Asahi-san doesn't have a stove at home, so if she wanted to make curry, she would have to come to my house for every meal until she finished eating it.
I don't mind, but it would be a problem for her to come to my house for every meal.
(Should I stop this…? No, but…)
With a blank expression on my face, I turn my attention to a high school girl holding a box of curry in front of her chest while she was saying, “Ta-da!!”
“I did some research and found that curry is recommended for beginners, so today I bought the ingredients for a curry dish! It's been a long time since I've made curry, so I'm really looking forward to it!”
(I was about to say ‘I don’t like curry…’ but I stopped when she looking forward to it that much…)
But, curry bread should be the least she can eat.
But how could I possibly put a damper on her smiling face when she looked at the recipe on the back of the box while saying, “How to make it~♪”?
“Onii-san!! I'm often called clumsy, but I believe I can pull this off!”
“I-I see…Then, let's do our best to make it together.”
“Yes!! I'm looking forward to working with you!”
—As if I had given up, I had no choice but to smile back at the high school girl who smiled at me with a carefree smile that was as dazzling as the rising sun, just like her name.
(Tired: Asahi(旭日) – The kanji can also mean ‘Rising Sun’)
