Every meal carries a story-perhaps of a family gathered around a table, a kitchen filled with the scent of freshly ground spices, or the warmth of a housekeeper , or grandmother's hands . Each recipe is a tribute to the Anglo-Indian communities that have preserved these traditions while they survived on a host country soil.
These recipes are continued down the generations by the Anglo Indian community , who are basically descended from Britain , Portugal , Spain , Denmark and France . Hence the recipes detailed here are a delightful blend of these European cultures , while incorporating a bit of the flavors of the host country .
Authentic Anglo-Indian Recipes is more than a collection of dishes; it is a testament to centuries of cultural exchange, adaptation, and survival. From the lush greenery of the estates of Mysore , the mysteries of Calcutta , the vibrant streets of Goa , the sprawling Anglo Indian bungalows of Edacochi , to the serene beaches and churches of Fort Kochi , Anglo-Indian cuisine has been influenced by the subcontinent's diverse regions, yet it remains distinct in its simplicity, comfort, and warmth.
