CURRYsma: Why is curry so tempting?


            It’s not a person or a diamond, It’s CURRY! It was once a side dish, now a main dish. Here’s a tale of total neglect to total attention.
            It’s funny how people considered the curry before as a type of “gravy” or a sauce and a side-dish. So picture curry as the children’s tale “ugly duckling” and the Sorcerer’s apprentice who seemed so vulnerable and dependent but time transformed them into the biggest superstars. But how did they survive?
            Unlike other side-dishes in the history of side-dishes the Curry became an international hit and it wasn’t even just a “one-time-fame” but THE CURRY, my friends, became prominent and phenomenal. This magical dish which originated from the subcontinent of India (the home of spices) started as a combination of India’s sacred ingredients: yoghurt, ghee, and besan. Then over time, people experimented with this sauce by incorporating meat and vegetables. Then, TADDAH! Hundreds maybe thousands of Curry flooded all over the world leaving humans in awe. Let’s just say that Curry is definitely a jaw dropper. And this is the dish’s cute little history.
            But what we are talking here is the Curry’s tempting charisma or shall we say, CURRYsma. When I read some forum on the internet about people who loves curry, I found some pretty authentic proof Curry’s adaptability that appeals a lot of people. Some answers were because of its smell and fantastic aroma, its color, and lastly some pointed out its spicy feature as its biting taste. But as I read more and more posts from these curry lovers, I noticed TWO common reasons why they love curry which I labelled as the ultimate CURRYsma. The two main reasons are: it’s easy to cook and because of its versatility it can be matched with almost all other kinds of dishes.
            There you go, now you know the CURRYsma! Happy eating!
