Curry

Curry (from Tamil kari) is the English word for any of a general variety of spiced dishes, best known in cuisines from India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan, Thailand, and other parts of Southeast Asia. 

 History 
Curry first came from India. In the 18th century, British colonialists in India brought the idea of curry to the Western world.

 In the West 
Curry has been adopted into many other cuisines. Dishes that are often called curries in Europe and America are rarely called curries in their native languages.

In the United Kingdom and Jamaica, curry is usually eaten with Basmati rice or naan, a type of flat bread.

A curry dish called Balti, which may have originated in Birmingham, United Kingdom, has been dubbed Britain’s de facto national dish.
