    As a Hindu Indian technology entrepreneur from Bombay, I attribute my wealth, health and vitality to Indian curry.

    I believe that curry is most versatile and tasty. Do you agree?

    Thanks,
    Raj Patel

    I only had fake curry. Can't say for sure. That being said, a nice slice of pizza.... I could go for one of those right now.

    Often the truth is better than the expectation.

    I would say more confusing. More questions arise out of it. Like what does it taste like and can I get the ingredients relatively cheap?

    The curiosity prior to the experience will only serve to heighten the experience.

    Wow, you're Indian now? I thought you were Scotch?

    Curry is NOT the best food ever, but it can be pretty good.

    curry is a food?

    its actually a spice.

    one cannot go to a restaurant and order a large order of curry.

    I thought "curry" was the Indian word for "sauce".

    If curry is actually a spice, I would suspect that it is a blend of many spices, much like Garam Massala.

    There is a curry tree and some curry's have actual curry in them but not many. Most are a mixture of spices and liquids or in the case of Westernization of curry, dried curry.

    I'm not sure, but I know that here in the States, curry is a spice. I have some in my cabinet. I hardly ever use it.

    I like curry; there's a lot of curry in the UK; Indian Curry and Caribbean Curry and what I swear is a British invention, Chinese Curry; Much like fortune cookies are American, I believe Chinese Curry is British.. Didn't have curry in Chinese take outs in Pennsylvania; There's also Thai Curry.

    Or a plant.

    Surely you know what the OP meant, however.

    Well, there are many foods and flavors that I like, but I sure do like my panang curry. I shared my recipe in the favorite recipe thread. But then, panang curry is actually Thai.

    Versatile? It probably is given so many different curry dishes.

    that's not actual curry, that's a blend of some westerner's idea of what the combination of spices (which go into curries) should taste like.

    curry in a hurry is always good.

    but the very best curry is lamb, slow cooked for at least 3 hours .. preferably 8.

    I only know it as a spice. I thought that is what curry was. Of course, most spices do come from plants though. Do people eat the actual plant that it comes from? I don't know.
