In the late 1800s and early 1900s, Indian dishes first came to the United Kingdom when British Settlers of India would return home with Indian Servants who would cook them the same exotic foods that they ate in India. Concurrently, Indian immigrants coming to the United Kingdom for advanced schooling and a better life, brought their recipes and cultures with them.

Curries, however, in the modern understanding, are a British modification of the traditional Indian recipes. This mass cultural shift and increase in the Britishization of Indian cuisine happened primarily in the 1970s and 1980s as Indian Immigration swelled in Britain and the British people became less culturally dismissive of them.
