Curry and carbs? We’re on board. If you’re a fan of curry and you’re a sucker for donuts, your taste buds will thank you for trying this savory pastry. Referred to as kare pan or Japanese curry bread, the savory pastry is made of curry that’s wrapped in bread and covered in panko breadcrumbs. It’s served either baked or deep-fried. You can find curry donuts at most Asian bakeries.

The donut component is made from yeast bread so you know it’s going to be fluffy. The outside of the curry bread is light and crispy with flakes of panko. The inside is soft and tender with meat and vegetable curry. The outer layer of bread acts as a cushion for the spicy stew and it gives you a convenient vessel to eat your curry on the go. If you think a sweet and savory pastry might be out of your comfort zone, try it anyway.

If you don’t have an Asian bakery within reach, you can make the Japanese curry pastry at home. Here’s a recipe worth trying. If you don’t have curry on hand, you can make the pastry with instant curry sauce. These sweet and savory treats are awesome appetizers for a dinner party. Without a doubt, your friends will be impressed.
