I have to be honest, since I left the UK 24+ years ago gor Aus, I found so many other foods that British Indian curry has been so far on my list - the most popular back then was rogan josh!... But visiting the UK maybe 5 years ago, the other food was so bad I ended up trying curry.. I made the mistake of ordering paneer palak (not sure why it became cheddar melted on spinach! Lol).... So in local areas don't order actual indian food.... Hemingway's british indian curry was less offensive.... I'd prefer a south indian Thali....but then I'd prefer Thai Moo Krata much more....

@@surfleetsurfer6370 I don't doubt there are many who abuse the system, come over with ill intent or refuse to integrate, and I agree somewhat that mass immigration without proper processing is an issue, but there are many who come to work honest jobs, study, raise their kids in what's supposed to be a safe and free country, provide essential services like GPs, care workers, etc, or just love our culture and want to be a part of it. That's the perspective I want to see. I believe, as with almost any issue there isn't a simple answer, and the only real solution is to be found through proper processing, hard work and a lot of money being spent making sure that those who do want to contribute and commit to integrating get to stay and those who don't have to leave. But it's not easy and simple and hate isn't going to get us there.

@@surfleetsurfer6370 I see what you are saying and I largely agree, but categorising all immigrants as illegal or here for benefits isn't really helpful, if anything the more productive approach would be to side with those immigrants who do care for and contribute to this country as every immigrant who abuses the system is helping to invalidate their hard work. This is not just the responsibility of the government but of natives communities to help understand the nuances of the situation and the difficult choices and also of the immigrant communities to make sure that their members are showing the best sides of the group and being an asset to the UK and valuing what we provide for them. I've lived and worked in an area dominated by immigrant communities so I know how rough those areas can be, and they aren't blameless in this, but more division isn't going to help find a proper solution. I would also point out that my original example was of a German and an American/Canadian, not exactly people here for benefits or even in mass numbers.

Sake Deen Mohammed, briefly shown on a Blue Plaque in your excellent video ( and one of your best ) , was a fascinating character as he is said to have been the first person to introduce Indian cuisine and Shampoo Baths to Britain. He also wrote the first book in English by an Indian and was by profession a soldier and a surgeon. " Sake" means venerable, and denoted his high social status in India, He built and ran a famous Shampoo Bath in Brighton, my home town, in 1821 known as " The Indian Medicated Vapour Baths", run by one of his sons, and spent the last years of his life there, dying in Brighton aged 91 in 1851 and is buried in the graveyard of the historic St. Nicholas Church in Brighton as he had converted to Christianity. His book " The Travels of Dean Mahomet ", published in 1794, is a travel book and an autobiography detailing his life from birth in " Hindoostan" and how he later followed his British commanding officer to Ireland, where he learned English, eloped and married an Irish girl. He's well worth a video on his own! He seems to have had two wives, both English and he often dressed as an Early Victorian gentleman. Unless I am wrong he appears to have been married to both wives at the same time, which as a Shia Muslim he could do: English law must have been quite lenient then as the second marriage was illegal!

@PotatoPirate1232 ай бұрын
The claims made about the ‘inventor’ of the tikka masala seem tenuous. It seems the yarn about the tomato soup was completely fabricated by a curry guide writer called Peter Grove and the Cinnamon Club owner. He even admits to it in an article. The story told by the son of Ali Ahmed is just a regurgitation of this same story. Why would an Indian restaurant have tins of tomato soup anyway, and why wouldn’t he have just put the dry chicken in an already established creamy gravy sauce like butter chicken sauce or a korma sauce? It just doesn’t add up, and I think the more likely (and less interesting) truth about CTM is that it was never really ‘invented’ at all from an inception standpoint, but simply developed over a number of years as a variation of butter chicken, during a time when butter was starting to fall out of favour as an unhealthy option.

I went to school on Denison Rd at the back of Wilmslow Rd (curry mile) in the 80s. There was a sweet shop which made them from pistachios and coconut etc... Bloody lovely!!!

Fascinating vlog! It's incredible how "British" a Chicken Tikka Masala is.. I heard several stories about how it was invented.. in the 70s to adapt to Western tastes.. Who knows for sure, but in india the food is quite different.. Great vlog! Loved it.. and well done on the sponsor, David.. 👏

The last time I was in the UK, I didn't go out for chicken tikka masala. My background is Trinidadian, so we have our version of curry occasionally. It looks so good, so the next time I'm in England, I'll try it.

I buy the sauce in the grocery store and doctor it with red onion, garam masala and hot peppers 🌶️. Always sauté the chicken before simmering. Love it!!! This is the only time I’ll drink a lager. Essential.

Great video, thanks for your efforts. Quite a difference between Pakistani and Indian chicken masala, I love both, but my favourite dish is lamb handi with spinach.

All i ate for years was tikka masala. Its the go too curry! Been experimenting with different ones the past few years, theres so many good ones! Lamb bhuna is the current favourite. Im surprised tikka is the national dish, though. I'd definitely get that question wrong.

In Late 1980s, I was with mates every evening trying out a TINDALOO, its a made up name. Basically Vindaloo with loads more chilies added on. But being lads aged around 20s then, with loads of Tennent's Extra in our bellies, we loved it.

Thank you for the video. It was marvellous really. I have watched a lot of your videos because they are never click-baity; they take the viewer on a quest; they are delivered with genuine interest ( chimneys !) and they, in their own way, are culturally authentic - they could only be delivered by an Englishman. From Australia. For what it's worth.

I find it quite hard having a pint with a curry, get too full, find a nice cup of tea goes amazing after a curry, especially if it was a hot one, the spices make the tea taste nicer.

You need to go to Ocean Road in South Shields. I've lived in Dubai for the last 14 years or so, and it's the one thing I miss. Real Indian and Pakistani curries aren't the same - A Bangladeshi-English curry!

Fascinating, but the takeaway is older than that. You can go to Pompeii, Herculaneum and Ostia and probably elsewhere and see well-preserved thermopolium that were vital to poor Romans who lived in tenements (Insula) that had no, or limited cooking facilities. It was a thriving industry that probably had it's roots in even earlier urban cultures, but certainly influenced later Levantine and Turkish food culture. Romans were p*ssheads as well, so some fermented fish heads with 10 goblets if wine probably went down a treat.
@wanderingturnip2 ай бұрын
Her thanks so much for this. I’m literally off to Pompeii next week so buzzing you mentioned this 😃
@RandallSlick2 ай бұрын
@@wanderingturnip I envy you. Top tip though, Herculaneum gave me a sense of time and place more than Pompeii. YMMV. Enjoy your trip nevertheless. Also, if you get a chance to go down the Amalfi coast, there's a village called Cetera that makes an anchovy sauce that the Romans would have known as Garum. A staple of food back then, even on deserts! Add that to a Tikka Masala and transcend all human experience.

An authentic curry house I would recommend is the Kismot in Edinburgh. Home of the "Kismot Killer" (the world's hottest curry - which I haven't tried as that particular dish is best left to drunk yobs and stag-do events!)
