Big Spoiled Children
「「I want to eat curry!」」
Roomba and Gates shouted out as soon as they arrived at the mansion in the morning. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「What happened all of a sudden Roomba, Gates?」
「Exactly what I said! We want to eat curry!」
「That’s right」
「I ran out of curry at home and I haven’t eaten curry in 5 days!」
「My limbs are shaking if I don’t eat curry and I started hallucinating!」
「That makes it a dangerous drug, isn’t it」
I feel like Eric - who ran out of mayonnaise - also said something similar.
I wonder if it’s their special characteristic for the people of this world to get addicted when they eat the food from my previous life?
「Al also starts to want to eat curry, right?」
「Nope, not at all」
「That’s a lie, right? You should have wanted to eat it every day if you made such delicious food!?」
Roomba made a face as if he didn’t believe me when I resolutely said that while shaking my head.
「I’ve been having curry lately ever since I’ve served curry at home」
Elna-kaasan and Eleonora-neesan kept pestering me for curry ever since I completed the curry, and I’ve been eating only curry since. Once I made it, we ate it for three days straight but even after making it the second time, it still received high praise and they still happily ate it.
「So that means, I could eat curry if I become part of Al’s family, right? Then, I’m going to become a child of the Slowlett house」
「Me too」
「I think Nord-tousan and Elna-kaasan would not want to have such big children」
They tried to be Slowlett house’s child aiming for curry, what an outrageous obsession.
Or rather, both of them are older than our parents. And I don’t need brothers like these anyway.
「Then, make some curry now please!」
「We want to eat curry」
「No way. That’s troublesome」
「How cruel! Even though you requested a lot of things of me when I accompanied you!」
Roomba said while his eyes were wet with tears when I decisively cut him off.
I asked him to taste the curry when he accompanied me in practicing making curry.
It was a ridiculous manner of saying things that can make people misunderstand even when you leave out a few words.
「Don’t say it in a weird way. In the first place, there was the promise of doing that until the curry is completed」
「Even so, we still want to eat curry!」
「No」
「「We want to eat! We want to eat! We want to eat! We want to eat! We want to eat!」」
When I firmly said no, Roomba and Gates started flailing around while lying down at the entrance.
……no way, to think they will go this far. It’s an absurd image when two large men are doing it.
Sara - who was collecting laundry - happened to pass by, but I think she didn’t want to get involved as she hastened and left. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
Un, well I guess it’s that way. Nobody would do anything about it, huh.
The two of them continue to furiously move their limbs around protesting like spoiled children.
The whole family should have been in the living room and definitely heard this, but there was no sign of movement from them.
Realizing that no one would offer me a lifeboat, I reluctantly confront the floundering ojisans.
「That said, the spices needed to make curry are expensive, you know? A bottle this size can make gold coins disappear.....」
「「In other words, you’re going to make it as long as you have the money, right?」
When I said that while scratching my head, Roomba and Gates got up and immediately took out their leatherbags. When I looked inside the bag given to me, I found a large amount of gold coins inside.
If it were an ordinary person they would be intimidated by the words ‘gold coins’, but I guess it’s because the two of them are adventurers that they can easily take it out.
Gates should have a lower rank than Roomba, but it seems like he still has a decent amount of money in his person.
「Haa…can’t be helped then. I will make curry for the sake of Roomba who accompanied me making the curry back then, but I won’t make it often, you hear? Keep in mind that this is a dish you can only eat occasionally, alright?」
「Ooh! As expected of you Al! You understand us!」
「Of course, I understand that」
And after I said all that in resignation, Roomba and Gates stood up and nodded at me.
It’s doubtful whether they really understand it or not, but with this, I should be able to pay my debt to Roomba and I could also avoid further pesterings.
●
After pushing Roomba and Gates to the dining room, I head to the mansion’s kitchen.
「That’s how it is Bartolo. I’m going to borrow the kitchen for a bit」
「You have it tough too, boy. I took a peek at the entrance earlier, that was quite a terrible sight」
「……don’t just peek, help me」
「Impossible. There’s nothing I can do」
What a heartless chef he is, I thought, but I can’t really blame him too much.
「We still have some curry, right?」
「Ou, there’s still some left」
When I opened the refrigerator, there was still some curry left in the pot. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
Since we still have leftover curry, that means I don’t have to make it from scratch which makes it easier for me. There’s also the fact that the curry has been left there to age and become more delicious.
「I’ll cook the rice」
「Nah, it’s too much eating it together with rice all the time, let’s not cook it」
The variety of dishes has increased, like karaage curry, kushiage curry, and gratin-style curry.
If anything I like to eat it with rice, but I feel like eating it differently now.
「Then, what are we going to make?」
「I’m thinking of wrapping it in a dough and cooking it」
「Hou?」
Maybe he’s interested in the cooking I’m about to do as Bartolo seems to decided to observe and learn how to do it.
I put wheat flour into a bowl and slowly add a little hot water I make with magic.
I continue to knead it with my hands to make it solid and add hot water until it’s about as soft as a soft dough.
Once the shape has been kneaded, I roll it up warp it tightly in a cloth, and store it in the refrigerator.
After around 30 minutes have passed, I take it out from the refrigerator.
After adding some flour to the table, I knead it again with my hands and continue to roll out the dough with a rolling pin.
Once the dough has become firm, I use a mug to cut it out into shapes.
The dough is now complete. It’s a simple dough similar to the ones used for gyoza so it’s also quite simple to make.
Once the dough is completed, I add the warm curry at the same time as some breadcrumbs into a bowl and mix them.
Mix it thoroughly until the texture turns into something like a paste and then pour it onto the shaped, round dough.
「Ooh, you’re going to wrap it with the dough and cook it, huh! That’s interesting! 」
Food served in a dough like this was also served at the harvest festival so Bartolo would understand it at once.
「Hey Bartolo, what else do you think will go well with curry?」
The mixture of curry and breadcrumbs is probably delicious enough already, but I want a bit more variety in flavor.
「Tomatoes, cheese, and cabbage would be good! And chicken meat too!」
As expected from a chef. He easily suggested some food ingredients.
「Ooh, that sounds good. Let’s add those」
Not only did he prepare the ingredients during the preparation process, he also prepared the ingredients he hadn’t prepared like the stir-fried chicken meat. It has a live feel to it and is fun to watch.
I add the cheese, cabbage, and tomato prepared by Roomba to the dough.
I applied the edge of the dough with water so it wouldn’t spill on and then added another piece of dough on it and neatly close it.
After putting the paste and the ingredients and closing it, I smear the surface of the dough with oil and sprinkle it with breadcrumbs.
The reason why I sprinkle breadcrumbs on it is because I want it to look a little like curry bread.
It’s not bad to fry it in oil but I want to make it a little healthier so I decided to cook it like this on the frying pan.
After shaping the dough, I place it onto the frying pan and cook it. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
A *juu* sound can be heard and then I checked to see if the shape crumbles.
「It’s okay to wrap it like that and cook it, right?」
「Un, please do」
It won’t be possible to finish all at once for everyone’s share if I do it myself so I asked Bartolo to help me cook.
When I opened the frying pan’s lid, the dough had been cooked and turned brown.
The curry paste stuffed inside the dough also releases a fragrant smell into the air.
I turn it over and also cook the other side of the dough.
Once both sides are cooked nicely brown,
「Curry wrap is complete」
It doesn’t look good if I were just to put it on the plate like that so I lay out some leaf lettuce at the bottom and watercress, and cut up tomatoes for color.
After everyone’s share is finished cooked, I bring the food to the dining room.
●
「It’s finally done!」
When I entered the dining room, Roomba and Gates were sitting there already.
It’s a little refreshing scene to see the two of them sitting at the usual family dining table.
「I’m kinda tired of just curry so I arranged it a bit」
「Ooh, it’s a different dish using curry! I’m looking forward to the taste!」
I presented the curry dish in front of the excited Roomba and Gates.
「Ohh? What’s this?」
「It’s curry wrap」
「Hmm, you wrap the curry in dough and cook it, huh? This looks delicious」
I also placed some tableware in front of them and took a seat as well.
「Go ahead, try it」
After I said that, Roomba and Gates took the curry wrap in their hands and ate it.
「Uooooohh! Delish!」
「Curry paste came out from inside. Not only that, there are also other ingredients that match well with the curry, it’s delicious」
Roomba yells and Gates gives his impression as if enjoying the food
That’s great. The two of them are not eating curry rice but it doesn’t look like they have any complaints.
Giving a sidelong glance at the two who continued devouring the food, I also took a bite.
The outside has a crispy texture. And thanks to the breadcrumbs, the flavor of bread also comes out.
The kneaded curry inside also comes out of the wrap. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「Oh, mine have tomatoes inside」
The heated tomatoes - which had been heated - have increased in sweetness and they go very well with the curry.
It also doesn’t contain too much oil so you can easily eat it and it’s very nice.
「Mine has cheese in it!」
「I got chicken meat. It has a variety of ingredients so you won’t get tired of eating it」
Roomba and Gates are excited as they talk about the ingredients that came out from the wrap with each other.
It appears that the ingredients Bartolo added to the dough are very well-received. As to be expected, since the original dish is curry if you add ingredients that match well with it, you would be able to enjoy it deliciously.
It might even be more enjoyable if I make it a little spicy. Also, I will try something properly deep-fried.
At that time, I’ll ask Bartolo to make it when I make curry again.
「Fuuh, it was delicious」
「Yeah, it was」
「Were you both satisfied?」
Roomba and Gates - who are done eating first - said, so I ask them that.
As promised, I gave them curry to eat so they probably have no complaints.
「It was delicious, but my limbs were still shaking with this amount」
「Yeah, I need to consume more curry ingredients」
「Meaning, you want another serving right」
Despite being exasperated by their request, I still left the dining room and picked some more curry wraps.
When I returned to the kitchen, I saw Bartolo sitting on the chair looking as if he had finished his work for some reason.
「Eh? Where’s the curry wrap? There should still be a lot of them, right?」
Even if I took out Roomba, Gates, and my portion, there was still a lot of unbaked curry wrap left in the kitchen.
「It was taken away by Eleonora-jouchan and the others」
As always, they are quick to notice. I’m sure they were already aiming for it when we were making them. The smell of curry is easy to recognize after all.
「Can’t be helped. Then we’ll just wrap it in dough agai――there’s no more curry!?」
「I put it into the dough and baked it for everyone……」
Does that mean I have to make curry again in order to make Roomba and Gates satisfied?
Aaah, it looks like curry will continue to be served in Slowlett house for a while. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
