I guess by now everybody is familiar with curry because it is an International known food mostly all over the world. The reason I choose curry is because not only of it good taste and beautiful aroma but, it is good for you both for herbal and nutritious values. Originally, curry is from India and attracted attention all over the Asian continent to Europe and all the way to North and South America. Interestingly, as curry is being copied, people tend to change the recipe to suit their taste. By the time it reaches the West Indies, some of the spices were deleted and a few were added. The heritage of Guyana indentured servants under British rule, which included six different cultures brought to Guyana. Being Guyanese incorporates different fragments of each of the six cultures. Our meals have a mixture of different elements of spices and seasonings that the other cultures use.
