Being from the Caribbean I'm amazed how differently each island cooks curry. 🇹🇹 We would cook and season it the chicken so differently. But I appreciate the difference and similarities in our cultures
“Food is a story of humanity “ love that

well then you are sadly mistaken - if curry is from India - wouldn't there be an indian name for it .. Not Portuguese .. blind leading the blind ..
Yes! Love this. Chief Curry, my favorite Caribbean Curry. 🇹🇹
I haven’t finished watching yet but..yes. Yes to this series and why you’re trying to do here. Loving it already. Plz keep it up!
This was lovely! Love seeing the Caribbean portrayed as the complex and beautiful place that it is. Few areas on Earth can boast of such a unique blend of cultures and culinary traditions. Anna Kay was an engaging and charming host. Rashida just raised the stakes on my curry making!
I love West Indian curry. I personally prefer it to the curries that you find in India. I have to admit that I'm not familiar with Barbadian curries though so it was interesting to watch this. It's a bit different from the types of curries that I'm more familiar with (Jamaican, Trinidadian, and Guyanese).

I hope you get a chance to try a homemade Indian curry, as well as try all that India has to offer. The south is completely different than the northern cuisine. They use more coconut, mustard seeds, curry leaves, aesofitida, and red meat. I'm of Indian decent but born and raised in the states. I have love of all of my Caribbean brothers and sisters and enjoy their own uniqueness and take on east Indian recipes. It's all love.

@@jacksnackson3578 I am in no ways implying that Indian curries are lesser than the ones one would find in the West Indies. It's just a personal preference for me. And I've tried many different types of Indian curries whether they be Punjabi, Gujarati, Tamil, Oriya, Bengali, etc. And they're all amazing in their own way.

Black people in general put meat in a hot pan with oil without utensils! I’m African American and I always cook hot food with my hands 😭
They brought the majority of Indian indentured laborers from northern regions like Jharkand and Bihar, not South India...
I prefer an entire chicken broken down instead of whole chicken pieces.
Are there Caribbean people who don't know this? Or is this for Americans who aren't familiar with who west Indians are?

That’s what I thought because curry originates from India so I didn’t think it would be a Portuguese word. I’m African but my best friend is Indian so I know about curry.
Looks good but we don't add potatoes to our curry chicken. We make curry aloo and chana to go along with it.

If I'm not mistaken, marinating the meat in the curry powder and then browning the meat in oil will give you a similar result, won't it? It's like your burning the curry in oil but along with the chicken at the same time. Or should it be done separately?
So basically the origins come from south India. It turned into a tutorial rather than a little history documentary

@@gk891 Most Indians that came to the Caribbean are north Indians but Some are south Indians. This is evident in last names such as Muthu, Pillai, Munsammy, Subramanian, Krishnamurthy, Naidu and Chintaman. I'm not sure if you know this but Hindu last names tell you what part of India someone is from as well as what caste they are. These last names are mostly Tamil and Telugu.

You ever see a chicking currying? You always curry the chicken.
The word "curry" comes from Tamil, and not from Portuguese as she suggested.
People use utensil’s putting meat in the hot pan 😂😂😂😂
Each set of people that came into the Caribbean contributed one thing or another. I think the origin of curry chicken should have been done by a Guyanaese, trini, indobarabadian or indojamacan etc someone from the indocaribbean community or someone who actually has connection and emotions to their community. I did my research and I don't think think video is completely accurately and emotionally aligned and mindful to the indentured servants from india. Caribbean people were never taught that that particular curry was from Portuguese. I think KZread should take it down like why if it's offensive since the info is not 100 right. Isnt it from india not portugese ?
i wish Rashida was more educated on the origins of Curry .. but sadly she doesn't know .. maybe she should have read up a bit before talking
Asian bought curry to us. And you're supposed to burn the curry first.
U righy ginger taste different
yall never have authentic caribs in the video (people who live here) In terms of the curry chicken it was ok just not the 'REAL' curry chicken.
