Because it is a staple of home cooking and often appears on the table

How to choose a curry plate

Two points when choosing
Size
The key is to choose one that is between 7 and 8 inches (approximately 21cm to 25cm) and has a slightly raised edge and depth.
Choosing a size that is large enough to make you feel like it's a bit big will give you more space on the plate and make the presentation look neater.
It is also easy to use for pasta and one-plate meals.
Material
For ease of care, Porcelain is recommended.
The smooth surface of the utensil makes it easy to remove roux and hardened rice stains, making cleanup very easy.
The nice thing about it is that it doesn't absorb water, so it won't stain easily.
From here, we will introduce specifically recommended dishes!
Oval plate for well-balanced serving of curry
