And Samosa which is a vegetarian adaptation of central Asian Somsa made in a Persian Tandir oven. Both of which are wrongly associated with India.Apparently a lot of the good Indian food wasn’t even invented by Indians, but by other cultures that ruled over them. Naan, the iconic Indian flatbread, was concocted by the Persians. Samosa’s are also a Persian creation. Biryani, the most popular Indian rice dish, came from the Mughals. Curry and Vindaloo, which is associated with India like croissants are to France, was invented by Portuguese colonials in Goa. Tikka masala hails from a Scottish tavern in the 1970’s. The tea plant, which is native to the Indian Nagaland-China border, was first brewed into tea by the Chinese during the Shang dynasty. India literally didn’t have tea for thousands of until the Brits reintroduced it to them in the 19th century.
It follows the pattern of India being allergic to innovation, then claiming to be the inventor after having something created for them.
Edit: APPARENTLY PANEER ISN’T EVEN AN INVENTION NATIVE TO INDIA. It was again, like vindaloo and curry, a creation of the Portugese Colonials. Lmao.
