Over 20 to 30 thousand of these local favorites are sold every day. Cod flesh is made into a paste and minced onions, carrots and curry powder are added. It is then breaded and deep fried. It goes well with rice of course, but it’s deep curry flavor makes it a hit with a cold glass of beer too. The Karatsu city manufacturer of this dish ahs been doing it for over 2 generations. 1 piece 80 yen, and this price hasn’t changed for 20 years!
