Basic types of curry:

1, Indian curry

Authentic Indian curry will be made with spices such as cloves, fennel seeds, coriander seeds, mustard seeds, turmeric powder and peppers. Due to the heavy materials and less coconut milk to reduce the spicy taste, authentic Indian curry has a strong and rich spicy taste.

2. Thai curry

Thai curry is divided into green curry, yellow curry, red curry and many other kinds. Among them, red curry is the hottest, and people who are not used to it are prone to tears when eating. Coconut sauce is added to Thai curry to reduce the spicy taste and enhance the fragrance, and the extra spices such as citronella, fish sauce and bay leaf also make Thai curry unique.

3. Japanese curry

In addition to India and its neighboring countries, Japan is also a country that loves curry. Look at all kinds of curry powder and pieces of curry sold on supermarket shelves. Most of the packages are marked with "Japanese flavor", which almost makes people mistakenly think that Japan is the birthplace of curry. In fact, although Japan and India are both in Asia, the curry eaten by the Japanese was not introduced from Europe until the Meiji Restoration.
