when the first Indian restaurants (which also includes Pakistani and Bangladeshi restaurants in a catch all phrase) opened in Britain they realised that the British liked gravys with their meat and some enterprising chef came up with Chicken Tikka Masala by combining the dry Chicken Tikka wuth a mildly spiced coconut and yoghurt curry to cater for the British tastes - its a bit mild for me but it is delicious. Elsewhere other forms of British Indian food have gained fame - the chicken Balti is originally from Pakistani restaurants in the Birmingham area I believe (and is well worth checking out).

I'm not too sure it would be worth the effort, not to sound rude or anything, but the irish, english, welsh, scottish, being so close to each other have developed our cuisine to the point that it is very much the same. For instance: Black pudding: literally on every full English, full Scottish, full Irish, full welsh breakfast... Coddle: a one pot meal that is essentially what you get if you take bangers and mash and simply add bacon. sausage, bacon, onions and potato... really isn't much different. Sheppard's pie: again, found across the UK, hes already eaten some colcannon: it is just mashed potato with cabbage or kale. Irish stew: it is just a beef stew, again, actually very commonly made across the UK. In short, the cuisine has absolutely no differential from English or Scottish.

It's a dish which varies so much, I lived in Stoke in the 90's and they had Balti restaurants on par with those in Manchester and Birmingham, the Balti's were incredible and one big thing for me was most of them used proper Tandoor ovens, which is used to make Chicken Tikka and Naan bread to die for, so it's well worth looking out for places that have a Tandoor oven, when I moved to Southern England afterwards I struggled to find Balti houses which were as good, very few used Tandoor ovens, the main difference with Chicken Tikka cooked in a Tandoor oven is it gets really charred on all the edges and is very juicy inside because of the fast cooking time, great videos btw, I love your aggressive eating technique, it's very committed, you really get stuck in!

As you said, 'food' that originates in one place often changes when exported to a completely different part of the globe. Different climates, local fruits and veggies and the really big one; the local cultural palate. The thin soup-like Indian curries you've had in Korea are in fact, a lot closer to the original dishes than a British Indian curry with heavy thick sauces/gravy. My go to is a chicken dhansak, although I do prefer a bit of an extra kick - and you only have to ask..!!
@frootyfabulous1019 ай бұрын
However, the thin soup-like curries in Korea are often cooked like a 'stew' more than a curry. Not to mention it's significantly sweeter than any authentic curry. Even the naan often has a donut-bread like texture. I think in terms of flavour UK's Indian Restaurants are closer to authentic Indian curries/dishes - but most restaurants often do this thing here in the UK where they serve foreigners milder and more creamy versions of thier menu, and for Indian costumers they make it spicier and more masaladaar. 😂

Ben! I'm like overspilling with thoughts watching your channel rn as someone from the UK, haha So glad youre getting an indian, defintiely recommend branching out while you can. I feel like chicken tikka is kinda like one of the starter currys for people who don't like spice, i reckon you could handle more >:) For super spicy, look into a phaal, vindaloo, or a naga (my personal fav, the flavour is INSANE) if you can find one Other really tasty medium spice curries that id recommend are garlic chili chicken massla (just how it sounds, super flavourful), balti (born from birmingham), jalfrezi (bell pepper is a main component), rogan josh. Another favourite of mine is the lamb achari, lime pickle is a main component of that one. Super unique flavour, quite zesty. Scotland invented the chicken chasni, it's super red, has ketchup as an ingredient and is really tasty. And i hate ketchup! Most importantly, GARLIC FRIED RICE. Or onion fried. Or mushroom fried. Or any flavoured rice. And a keema naan, youd fucking love that, stuffed with meat, sometimes you can find keema + cheese naan

Poppadoms with mango chutney poured on top and then the onion on top of that is a go to otherwise they’re way to dry. Chicken tikka masala can be different in each takeaway or restaurant you go to,some can be way to sweet or some can be less sweet with a bit of spice or they can be yellow in colour or more towards the traditional red colour. I prefer sweet with a little bit of spice and the deep red colour.

It’s very popular in Canada & called Chicken Tikka Masala in the States you might find it sold as Butter Chicken & is usually served with white rice instead of Basmati. I usually order it by the name Chicken Tikka Masala, but I have seen it listed as chicken masala or butter chicken as well. It’s really good no matter what name is used, but sometimes Butter Chicken doesn’t have as much chicken or at least that is my experience. My grandfather was actually of Maori descent, but his dad worked for the British East Indian Company & so he grew up in India & we grew up in the 50’s, 60’s & 70’s eating curry before it became popular & we had friends of Indian heritage. I love curries & my favourite snack food is Samosas😋

The best curry I've eaten was at the curry mile in Manchester, called Sher Kahn. The saag aloo was the best I've ever tasted. Chicken Tikka Masala is always my go to dish, onion bhaji, mushroom bhaji and a keema naan. No rice for me - too filling 😉

My go-to for years was getting a chicken tikka masala but vindaloo hot. (You can do this for any curry, just ask or add a note) The blend of sweet and spicy works so well together, it's sooooo good! If you want something spicy ask for a Phaal (Pronounced Faal) It's the hottest one they do and not often on the menu but they always do it.

@@DPhoenixPoet I eat Naga curries all the time, only had a phaal once, that was like eating CS gas in gravy form. The Naga chilli was at one point the hottest in the world but a Naga curry isn't as hot as Phaal, they use a chilli pickle to make Naga curry but they don't go over the top with it as you usually can only just taste the vinegar in the pickle but phaal they throw a ridiculous amount of hot chillies into it like it's some sort of challenge.

Have to say I'm well impressed by the quantity of meat in that, very generous. I tend to like my curries as a mixture of meat and veg though I guess you could order a veg side to have with it. It really is a British dish there for sure not least because of the thicker sauce/gravy and I would guess by the spices and flavours used there too. Pure comfort food on a plate. Poppadums really need chutneys, pickles and sauces and that yummy finely chopped onion salad thing. Personally I'm more of a chapati girl for scooping up the food, naans are a bit too thick for that job for me though tasty on their own.

Britain has had huge ties with India over many years, in earlier years it was Brits in India ( they would bring back their love of the food ) & latterly it`s Indians in Britain so Indian food has been well established for a long time. Your plate of food looks on-point although a side dish of chickpeas in a different sauce or perhaps a potatoe or spinich dish or even cheese ( panir ) would give the main a more interesting meal overall. The popadoms as you say would have chutney or mint raita accompaniments, & the naan breads eaten with the curry. Many Indians & Brits will load-up the naan with curry in place of a fork too. Btw, I`ve discovered that Iceland supermarket have a superb range of Curry`s, these I would hartily recommend to curry lovers, they are that good!
