About Moji Port Baked Curry

Moji Port Baked Curry (門司港焼きカレー, Moji-kō yaki curry) is a delightful dish where curry, rice, cheese, and an egg are baked together in the oven. While this is the standard preparation, each restaurant offers its own unique twist, varying in flavor, appearance, and toppings. Some places even enhance their version with fresh seafood like pufferfish or octopus to reflect the town’s seaside charm.

The baking process reduces the curry’s moisture, giving it a deeper, richer flavor. The slightly crispy, aromatic curry roux perfectly mingles with the melted cheese for an unforgettable taste and texture. The soft-boiled egg adds a creamy, luscious element, blending seamlessly with the cheese and curry. This harmonious medley of flavors—cheesy creaminess, eggy richness, spicy warmth, and subtle sweetness—is the true essence of Moji Port Baked Curry.
