Hang about. You say curry is and English dish and not an Asian dish. The term curry is English, I'll give you that. It probably originated from the Kari leaf used in southern Indian cooking.
Suppose we accept that curry is English - how can you go on to say that there is a total difference between English and Asian curry? The way you argue would suggest that the whole of Asia copied the so-called curry from the English!

There is an absolute difference your right, ASIAN curry is far nicer, basic but very tasty. English currie were originally based on Asian recipes and changed to suit the English palette. Don't get offended by it, its not worth the energy. Luv J x

By using 1.Basic knowledge 2. Basic natural laws 3.Applying simple logic which depends also upon the brain's ability.
let us consider curry; I agree entirely with you that it is NOW a popular English dish and different from Asian curry.
If we go back in history we note that the 17th/18th century Europeans explorers and colonizers,including the English, were going to the far east (Asia) to bring back spices among other things. It is clear that these spices(including curry powder ) were already in use in Asia where it was readily available. But it was not available in England and ,up to today hardly any is grown in England.So one can conclude that the origin of curry is Asia and definitely not England. But it has been well adopted by the English
Regarding the different curries. Even in Asia there are different curries varrying from country to country, from state to state , from one kitchen to another and from time to time.These variations depend upon
1.individual taste ,modifications and adaptations
2.availability, choice and use of the numerous variety of spices. As an example ,no two Indian restaurants in Southall has their curries tasting exactly the same.
Did you Know eg. that one the best Fish 'n Chip I have tasted was in the seaview Shamiana restaurant of the Taj Intercontinental Hotel of Mumbai :the fish was their local tropical one.
So you see PAULINE...Graham Bell invented the telephone but the Japanese and other nations perfected it.(eg Sony Ericsson).

How can people ask a question on something they don't know about?
You have your facts backwards. English colonizers brought curry to England from Asia.
Better luck next time!

You're a fool. Curry comes from a curry leaf- which is indigenous to Asia you daft loon.
The curry in England has had all spice removed so we poor English don't dislocate our rectums.
I lived in India, and I am 100% Caucasian English and very proud of our culture. Buyt we can't take credit for someone else's achievements- it's like the Chinese saying they invented the fob-watch. Never happened.

everyone has the right to share and comment, whether they know about it or not. Otherwise how can there be so many politicians???
it's up to us to believe or not.
there are so many dishes in the world that have gone into another culture because people simply enjoy them. In most cases, they adopted them to fit their own tastes, and there is no right or wrong, good or bad to that. It's purely a dish being localised.
To me, the diversed nature of food only enriches my food experience.

Curry was ripped of the Asian Indians some years ago. Curry was the name of a guy who brought it to England.

You are absolutely right, however, people who frequent Asian fast food places swear that is the only curry in the world.
They don't consider Jamaican, Indian or English. And ironically, Asian curry is the worst out of all of them.
