Thanks to the British Empire, it became a global sensation, transforming into the "English curry" and taking on new forms in kitchens worldwide. Whether you're a lifelong curry lover or a curious foodie, join us as we trace the delicious legacy of curry, from its roots in Indian tradition to its place on international tables today.
