Omslag till Jo Monroe: Star of India (PDF)
How did the curry get here and how did the Brits, a nation famed
for a love of bland food, end up with Chicken Tikka Masala as their
favourite dish? It is a history that took curry, via the British
Empire, from its Eastern origins, around the globe.

This book talks to the men and women who gambled everything to
make a living, who endured indifference and racism to secure an
income and those who got their relatives to pack the cardamom when
they visited as there was no other way of obtaining the
ingredients. This book looks at how the British love affair with
curry has changed lives, not just in Britain but around the
globe
