Curries can vary greatly depending on where they originate from, usually in the Indian subcontinent or Southeast Asia. They can be further defined by national, cultural, traditional and personal preference by modifying ingredients, spices and cooking methods. But the one feature that is universal is the complex combination of spices, herbs and fresh or dried chilli.
