Fishing Frenzy

Before the emergence of the big British Empire, the natives in Sri Lanka referred to 'curry' as 'kari'. This tasty sauce that was taken along side rice. After the emergence of Britain, the whole setting of many foods changed a great deal due to the fact that the Britons came up with a wide range of dishes to supplement man's diet.

Any dish that falls in the line of hot stew these days is called curry. We have the African, Indonesian, Thai and Malaysian curries at this particular moment.

The main ingredient is coconut milk plus some bit of chilies. Depending on the geographical area of the country, all her neighbors will be preparing the same dish of curry.

The way the Thais prepare their curry is so different from the methods used by other countries. They use wet spices which are not cut into small pieces. This type of cooking is found all over Southeast Asia hence that's how their tradition does it.

For the Indians, they opt for dry spices which are very fresh and they are cooked in their normal size to bring about a lovely meal. This clearly shows that the Thais' way of cooking differs from the Indians'.

The stew made by Northern Indians is always made by use of onions which have been minced for some period of time.

The Indians don't consider the curry dish as their staple food because it was invented by the Europeans. However, this does not mean that this breed has no interest in this type of food hence they enjoy it a great deal even if they are not the ones who came up with the whole idea of this lovely dish.

Just because the stew is spiced with many ingredients, it never implies that the dish qualifies to be called curry. Thus, if you have been doing this thinking that you are enjoying a dish of curry, then you have been mistaken.
