Welcome to Celtnet's Curry Recipes Page — This page is dedicated to all the curry and curry-based recipes presented on this site. The word 'curry' itself comes from the Tamil: (கறி), literally meaning 'gravy'. Though most curries are though of as originating from the Indian sub-continent a curry in general cooking parlance is and dish served as a sauce or stew that contains aromatic leaves, spices and, most typically, chillies. Most curry recipes do come from he Indian sub-continent but there are also curries from South-East Asia and Africa. All are represented here...
As well as classic curries from around the globe, below you will also find listings of traditional and modern curry spice blends as well as traditional curry pastes. |
Curry Spice Blends: Masalas
The name ‘masala’ comes from the Hindi and literally means ‘a mixture of spices’. These are typically aromatic spice blends used to flavour curries and pickles and are typically added towards the end of cooking. Garam Masala is the famous spice blend, a mix of hot spices, but it is not the only one and these blends are to be found in countries apart from India, as show here.
Curry Spice Blends: Curry Powders
Though they are convenient, no curry spice blend is in any way authentic. They are actually a Victorian invention that allowed wealthy Britons to gain a taste of exotic India. One of the first recipes for these is given by Mrs Beeton in the Book of Household Management, and it’s this recipe that I first give below.
They irony is that these curry powders became so succesful that they have actually become the basis for a number of curry recipes (though no traditional Indian curry would use them).
The recipe link below is to Mrs Beeton's Curry powder, one of the first curry powder recipes seen in Britain:
Mrs Beeton's Indian Curry-Powder
Below are more contemporary and traditional curry powders:
Curry Spice Blends: Curry Pastes
These are far more authentic than the curry spice blends given above and reflect more how curries are actually made across the world. A fresh blend of vegetables, herbs and spices puréed into a paste that typically needs to be fried before using to flavour meat and vegetables.
