We think of curry as an Indian dish, but it is popular all over the world. Many countries have their
own version of curry. You can find curry in Asia, Australia, and Europe, but the ingredients and flavor can
be very different. All of these dishes called “curries” are made of complicated combinations of herbs and
spices, usually including one or two types of chilies.
British sailors introduced curry to Japan over 100 years ago. Now, it is one of the country’s favorite
dishes. On average, Japanese people eat rice with curry for about sixty-two times a year. Japanese curry is
quite mild. It is usually made of onions, carrots, potatoes, and meat. Unlike in India, where curry is
normally vegetarian, the Japanese often add beef or pork to their curry.
Thailand has its own kind of curries. The Thais like to use chilies, limes, coconuts, and a lot of local
spices, so their curries can be very hot and spicy. Their curries are known for their color. Red curries use
red chilies, and green curries use green chilies. Yellow curries are usually made with coconut milk and are
much creamier.
Pakistani curries are usually dry, and are very different depending on the part of the country. They
usually include meat, often beef. A normal lunch or dinner in Pakistan includes curry and bread. One of the
most popular curries includes garlic, ginger, chilies and tomatoes.
As curry spreads to more countries, and people add their own local flavors and ingredients, it will
continue to change.
