Of all the strange interactions I've ever had on social media A British person telling me that chicken ticket masala is British cuisine is really really high up there.
Replies
It is british, hell, the Indian side of my family never heard of the fish until a couple of them studied abroad in England in the 70s. Chicken tikka masala is to Indian cuisine as General Tso's chicken is to Chinese cuisine as the Taco Bell menu is to Mexico.

Vindaloo in the UK has potatoes in it because Hindi speakers here figured that "aloo" meant potatoes and not garlic. It was further modified to exclude pork and sometimes to take revenge upon abusive customers. I invite racist Americans to eat a British vindaloo and post the video.

Much like “Chinese food” has in America. Takes a largely regional cuisine with a few variants, adds sugar, holds back the spice, it becomes popular. Then after a while you get the “authentic stuff” and regional variations as a follow up. See also Italian… etc etc.

Typical fucking Yank white settler, accusing others of colonialism while squatting on stolen land. "Of course I could give my house back to the local indigenous tribe but WHOOPS we've killed them all." Fucking hypocrite.

“They likely grew up with it” yes because it is a documented creation in Britain. Key part in British-Indian cuisine. Over 200 years of Indian restaurants in the UK. Why are Americans so weird about the long history non-white Europeans? Your main Trump critique is that he is fat? Terrible vibes.

All you have done here is reveal your ignorance twice over . First you didn’t understand, and second you compounded this by trying to get others to validate your lack of understanding when it is not valid.

What this does is demonstrate that you really don’t know what you’re talking about where our food, and our food history, is concerned. I’m not even slightly surprised that an American is this arrogant. And no, you’re not worth explaining it to. Maybe apologise to Stephen Bush first.
