Hypothetical-- you can only choose two cuisines to eat for the rest of your life. What might they be?
For me it's Indian food, but then... what else? Ugh... what a question.
Bah. My mind is a whirling blank right here. I mean, freshly-prepared tiradito right off the boat is like... ffff, like tasting heaven.
I mean, I've never had *truly* fresh, truly authentic sushi, but I imagine it would be like tiradito? (note: it's a form of ceviche, i.e. latino lime-cooked fish slices)

Hmm, I was going to go with Mexican and Chinese but French has now thrown me!
It’s strange that French food has high standards when they’re French.
Cheese eating surrender monkeys?
Fake language speaking long cigarette smoking crappy movie making frogs.
Mexican and Italian. Both have very rich regional traditions with a ton of variety. Of course, Mexican food is a blend of Native American and European traditions, and Italian food (often) depends heavily on New World crops like tomatoes and corn, so these strict delineations are not real
It's so curious-- so what was late-stage Western Roman food like, anyway?
Max Miller is a dang-ol' genius at this stuff, but he always has to make a huge production about it, y'know..?
I can only assume they just drank gallons of garam!
In all seriousness though, we have a very dedicated restaurant near us run by a couple from the Verona area in far-northern Italy, and they use no tomatoes or corn. Pretty much every dish they make would've been possible pre-Columbus. This includes many styles of pasta, sauces based in olive oil or butter, and other things like beef, shrimp, mushrooms, pistachios, peas, and a variety of cheeses.
Wow, that's... yeah!
So, hehe, I've been to Italia a grand total of , when we visited my aunt in Firenza, many years ago. (One of the things I really loved about Italia is how it busted our mindset about 'American expectations')
Fair! But we also came up with potatoes, chiles, and quite a number of spicy meatballs, not just of the polpette piccanti variety, eh?
It seems to be a belief many Americans have, but usually they are mainly familiar with American Italian cuisine, which is quite different from mist actual Italian cuisine.
That was my sense as well from my one visit to Italy. As is completely common, an ethnic / cultural food almost always get adapted towards the tastes of other regions / nations.
I try to eat mostly vegetarian at home, and Indian recipes are my go-to for that. Indian food is the best tasting vegetarian food in my opinion. I was tempted to put Chinese here because I make tofu stir fry somewhat frequently, but I go with Indian recipes more often.
Mexican for the second choice because that gives you huevos rancheros, Mexican rice and beans, and homemade corn tortilla chips with guacamole. And breakfast burritos from the place down the street from me.
Same two for me probably
Same for me as well.
Same for me.
Figure that pretty much covers all of my bases.
Indian and Chinese are excellent options, since they’re basically a couple dozen (minimum) cuisines in a trench coat.
Hahaha, that's great!
Cantonese food, though... we must try it!!
Chinese food
Also Chinese food
Indian or vietnamese because both have amazing vegan options
In truth, I could nom their stuff for eternity.
I love how you nailed them both, right there!
A famous Anthony Bourdain quote about Japan states: "If I had to eat only in one city for the rest of my life, Tokyo would be it. Most chefs I know would agree with me". He also famously described his first experience in Tokyo as being like "taking LSD for the first time," a transformative experience that changed his perspective on the world.
I agree, for me it would be Japanese food, it's so diverse and so refined.
Japanese
Indian
This is the correct answer
Eastern, western
Northern and southern
Huh! And what is that, if I may ask..?
EDIT: Will you clowns give it a rest for JUST a moment, here...?
Lean Cuisine is a brand of frozen dinners. :P
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lean_Cuisine
A not serious option.
In Texas, lean is cough syrup
Probably Thai and Indian, since they both have a strong vegetarian side.
Just pick Burmese, covers both. I'd probably choose that and Japanese.
Mexican, Indian. Hands down.
Though there some other traditional foods I haven't had yet (South American, African)
Same and in that order. Mexican food has always been my #1 favorite followed closely by Indian food. So yum!
Just so you know. Jollof rice is either Ghanaian or Nigerian depending on the nationality of the person feeding it to you and their version is the original and best. They're quite serious about it.
India is an entire sub continent of food, its like saying "european"
It counts. It's still 1 country. It might be cheating a bit but it still counts.
What if I told you that most dishes people call Indian are actually Bangladeshi via Birmingham, England.
Vindaloo is from Goa. If that were the only dish from India, I'd still pick India.
Ah, and that would technically be Portuguese/Indian fusion.
At least a proper one would be rather than the British Indian restaurant version.
Portuguese food is good too! Love me a custard tart.
Turkish and French. Turkish because it has an extremely wide variety, French because they are the goat.
If I was to try and dabble in French food, what would you recommend I try? I've literally never had French food as far as I know and am intrigued.
Not OP, still huge fan of French cuisine. I’d choose Coq au Vin. It’s straightforward to do at home, all you need is a pot and a cooking plate. Combines red wine, mediterranean herbs and a good amount of butter with vegetables and chicken for an incredible dish. French people value fresh, beautiful ingredients and are willing to pay top money for A-class quality. That’s another secret to their cooking.
Then there’s of course more dishes that you can’t easily do at home:
Best thing to do is visit France and experience it. No need to waste time and money in overcrowded Paris, foodies will be very happy in Bordeaux, Marseille, Rouen and affordable Provence area. You get amazing lunch deals (“plat du jour”, dish of the day) that typically include starter, main and dessert for around EUR15 in many places.
I'm happy you mentioned the bag-in-box wine. Boxed wind is frowned upon by snobs but when buying from a local co-op years ago the winemaker suggested to but some bagged wine for easy drinking. Especially suites for light wiens that don't age.
I would also suggest to try the 'tranche du boucher' (butcher's slice) in a local bistro. It's a slice of meat that is sold a bit cheaper. Have it with a bit of bread and a green salad.
My American friend taught I was crazy when i ordered the hand cut steak tartare once. Finely chopped seasoned meat. Extra points if you have it with a raw quail egg yolk. Heavenly.
Americans and taste.....
The raw meat and raw egg yolk is what scared him. He just watched me like it was a joke and checked the day after on my health status.
They're scared AF from raw eggs.
I know they only eat them if they're pasteurised at least.
Read about it once, they have different standards and practices.
Same for the meat, totally fine in Europe if all rules are followed.
IMO nothing beats a good French onion soup with a cheesy bread.
And if you didn't mention the patisserie, that would mean you haven't got a sweet tooth.
It's definitely one of the specialties.
I'm sure my GF will try that tomorrow when she goes to expensive Paris.
Yeah, onion soup is up there, too. Fish soup as well imo. There’s just too much good stuff 😅 good for your GF, I bet she’s in for some (expensive) treats 😁
Wow thank you so much for taking the time to type this up! Definitely plenty of options now to go hunt down. Thank you!
I will add a couple of my favorite dishes to what @[email protected] said. Boeuf Bourguignon, and Tartiflette. Also +1 for boxed French wine.
Italian and Mexican
Vietnamese and Italian.
Pho and pizza is already my diet and I wouldn't change a thing.
Mediterranean and Thai.
New York style pizza and Chicago style pizza. I can't see this going poorly for me, ever.
If you just say 'American' do you get both as one selection, with Texas BBQ & Southern Biscuits & Gravy as a bonus?
Absolutely, I just said two types of pizza as a dumb joke.
Based
Indian and Mexican. I'm Indian. Makes total sense. Equator foods for the win!!!
1: something East Asian; Japanese, Chinese, Indian, Thai. I’d be happy with any of them, I just can’t decide.
2: something Hispanic/South American, basically just Mexican food.
With any two in those categories there’s enough variety for me to spend my life eating
Bruh.
Literally what I posted: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/21287257
Is he not allowed to have the same opinion?
More in the case of "Funny. Our minds are totally alligned"
Well Tikka Masala was invented in the UK, so that sounds about right.
Scotland takes curry very seriously. But also I'm pretty sure tikka masala was first made in Britain so technically you want British food. Sorry about that.
At least you now have access to deep fried pizza and mars bars. And buckfast "tonic wine". And let's not forget the Glaswegian munchie box!
Where in Perth??? (If you'd like to share)
Thank you, much obliged!
mexican and mexican
You sound like my mom
Apparently Scotty doesnt know.
Mexican and Indian.
Or Mexican and Mediterranean.
Or Mexican and something I haven't discovered yet. I hear Thai is good.
What an incredibly difficult question to answer. Mexican and Chinese probably. Hokkien noodles are so fucking good
Indian and Mexican. As a pescatarian married to someone who can't eat soy or eggs, we're already more or less doing that. Though Italian will be missed. Fourth would be American because unfortunately that's what we are
I'm American of Indian descent and I agree. I'm also celiac so I can't eat gluten. Indian and Mexican is so versatile. All the foods have almost every amino acid and nutrient. There are pastas we can eat! We have to make at home unfortunately but I refuse to give up Italian food!
Also, let's get lunch.
So land-based creatures are worth saving, but oceans are not? Fascinating.
American, and Mexican.
Middle Eastern and Indian has some of the best vegan food.
Indian cannot be surpassed for vegetarian, but I don’t know how you would replicate many dishes without ghee, yogurt, or cream.
Chinese food! More specifically, Sichuan and Northwestern style food.
I don't need to pick a second one.
Pizza. Endless combinations available.
For me it would be Indian and Italian with mexican as an honourable mention id sorely miss.
All three are super easy to make on your own too and almost everything I make could be classed as imitations of either. Heck, I already make Christmas pizza every year instead of the usual Christmas dinner. A few years I've made Christmas enchiladas too which is why I'd miss mexican but I definitely have more curries than mexican over the course of any given year.
Japanese or Mexican probably.
If Indian qualifies as one single cuisine - then Indian. I'll have enough dishes to try out in my lifetime and that's after considering I am vegetarian.
I guess you're probably right. India is a large country, with roots, cultures and traditions like an ancient sequoia tree's vast, extensive roots in the ground.
So just out of curiosity (especially as an ignorant Westerner), just how many distinct cuisines would you say there might be across India and the India-adjacent regions?
Note: let's try to avoid going 'regional' if possible, because any nation can be broken down in to heaps of regional variations, yeah?
Peruvian and Mexican
Indian and Thai, but I'd really miss pho.
That being said, no way I don't grill some steaks and burgers and brats..
I would miss Mexican for sure but this is also my answer.
Mexican and Chinese.
But like the american type chinese takeout with a seventeen page menu of sushi and bubble teas I will never once get. And the mexican restaurants that also serve americanized tacos, so you know everything else has extra cheese and sauce.
I would say you're looking for Texmex cuisine, which is the Americanized version of Mexican food that's heavy with the cheeses and sauces, and Sino-American cuisine, which is the Americanized Chinese food and also includes things like fortune cookies which are most definitely not Chinese in origin.
Though I might just say "American" cuisine as that would include those things, and also very American foods like pizza, hamburgers, and hot dogs.
French, Thai
Give me Japanese, and give me Thai.
Japanese cuisine runs far and deep, and so does Thai food.
Of course, this begs the question: what about a good burger with kewpie on it, or what happens if I put carnitas in pad thai? Where’s the delineations?
Eventually I can argue that frosted animal crackers, the pink and white ones, furthest from any kind of national or regional cuisine whatsoever, are Thai food cause they’ve been eaten by Thai people.
MAN, you were on ROLL right there, and then... you just decided to... LOL
Now I want a good burger with kewpie on it.
This is the right answer.
For my mouth and dopamine, Italian. For my health, Greek.
Eh, but why GREEK..?
(I'm assuming you're not referring to the gross slabs of reconstituted meat, roasting unhealthily on the rotisserie?)
Um... you mean the Carnivore's Cone of Delight, endlessly rotating in front of you like a car in a showroom?
Yeap, I love it!
(but I also hate it for my health, if that makes sense?)
FWIW the meat itself isn't unhealthy, its all the oils and sauces that accompany the meat the impact overall health.
Well, my understanding is that in general, the more processed the food (including meat), the worse it is for our health.
Gyro / shawarma meat is evidently heavily processed and then reconstituted in to the 'cone,' likely with a bunch of salt, binding agents and preservatives added. Not unlike sausages, for example.
So almost any type of meat that goes in to a shawarma / gyro, such as lamb, beef, chicken, etc is going to be considerably better for us when eaten straight-up, as with steaks, etc.
There's tons of Greek vegetarian dishes. Gyros and souvlaki are not your average every day home cooked meals.
Nah... Well... Occasionally lol
Does "American" count as a cuisine? 'Cause it encompasses just about everything else, as long as I don't need it to be "authentic."
Excellent choice. I hope you're happy with barbecue, fast food hamburgers, and all-day breakfast.
Or Mission burritos, or NY-style pizza, or General Tso's chicken, or...
Italian and Mexican. That covers about 50% of my diet already.
In this house, we serve both kinds of cuisine: macaroni and cheese!
Now if that's a BLUES BROTHERS reference, I love it!!
Italian and Japanese
Biryani, Haleem with naan
Pakistani?
Try Arab
Yes
Indian food is great because it packs tons of flavor with minimal calories
Doubts about the second part.
The ghee is used abundantly, they fry a lot and if not there's always a tadka to poor over it.
Depends OC on what region or religion.
Silly to lump everything into 'Indian' as it's huge and has many cuisines.
Yeah I should have mentioned I meant in comparison to my local cuisine which includes a lot of red meat, dairy and alcohol like wine, I'm surprised we don't have more cases of gout here lol, thank you for the feedback
Where's that? Wild guess...eastern Europe?
I feel like you people are forgetting about Greek cuisine. The worst Greek food is still decent.
Pastitsio is fucking divine. I’ll admit there are some things in the cuisine I don’t care for but the stuff I like is just some of my favorite food ever. Greeks fucking know what’s up. Only thing I tend to need to add is a bit of heat cos George likes his food spicy.
Middle Eastern and Middle Eastern (I should probably give other cuisines a try). There's a lot more to this stuff than shawarma, y'all.
Indian and italian
Italian and Vietnamese. I’m from neither of the places, but their food is so much better than anything we’ve got.
I'm the same way, actually. Italian is a no-brainer because of all the pizzas and pastas and gelato, but the mediterranean cuisine is very rich and can be quite healthy as well. And Vietnamese food encompasses just a lot of the more spicy asian dishes to give a nice contrast, also love rice.
Fun fact. The worst meals I ever had we're in Italy and France. That doesn't reflect on the whole cuisine but I've found it remarkable.
Thai and Iranian. That'd cover a large spectrum of what I like.
Take the meat parts out and I'll eat almost anything.
Like my in-laws.... Hmmm here's a great new hummus and salad! Yeah we sprinkled chicken, pork, beef, and shrimp powder and other meat products. It doesn't change the flavor, we just like gout so much.
Perfectly good meal + smear some dead animal on it.
I'm with you folks, on the whole. A well-prepared, complete-protein vegetarian meal rocks, especially with lots of complimentary seasoning.
Does gout come from consuming animal products? Hmm, I hadn't heard that, before.
@[email protected]
Stuff like cabbage (and Brassica sp.) are best cooked, because otherwise they can be goitrogenic, interfering with the thyroid gland's function over time. There's also the (admittedly slim) chance that some animal has passingly added something undesirable to a veggie, be it parasite or disease-causing.
Which is why it's important to do either a mild chlorine wash of any veggies you eat, or at least blanch them. (not trying to lecture anyone here; all that's just my personal understanding)
From personal experience getting stranded in s foreign country as a kid with my dad unable to walk or move due to uric acid and gout, your worst offenders are red meat, pork and shrimp. Shrimp surprisingly being the worse one. But carry a long needle syringe to get your knees back on the road sooner! LOL.
My opinion is that a little meat is OK. I don't eat meat but I can see where others need it like a drug.
Wow, actually... yeah?
Opposite actually - fructose intake, alcohol intake (same pathway as fructose in liver), advanced glycation end products (glucose intake) are the major drivers of gout.
https://doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-12-821617-0.00004-8 Section 7.3 if you would like to know more (overwhelmingly so) - it's available on the normal 🦜 sites.
Basically the old connection that meat can drive uric acid a bit and uric acid is a component of gout isn't actually helpful, during a active flare up avoiding meat can help reduce uric acid levels a tiny bit but it does nothing to address the systemic cause of the gout in the first place. i.e. Watermelons have a high water content but are not causal in drownings, but avoid eating watermelons while actively drowning.... same thing
Appreciate your opinions (which I'll need to research), and especially enjoyed the following:
😂
(oh my, that's a good one)
If I didn't have dietary restrictions the Vietnamese and Puerto Rican (with Mexican essentially tied).
stir fry and pizza
French food is complicated to make compared to other European countries and looks very fancy but it really isn't better than Italian, German, Spanish, or indeed British food. Don't get me wrong, I still make the odd quiche, crème brûlée, or sole meunière, but it's just to change things up when I get bored of making my usual repertoire of dishes. It's nice but more labour intensive for what it is. OP didn't say you'd be getting it from a restaurant every day. Your probably going to be making things from scratch a lot. Do you even own a blowtorch for caramelising deserts or a water bath for sous vide?
As a south european person I feel kind of offended by seeing someone put German or even British gastronomy on pair with French, Spanish or Italian cuisine
What exactly do you think British cuisine is out of curiosity? I know none of those countries have cake as good as black forest gateau so don't even try to claim otherwise.
Fish and chips, meat pie and little more. I don't think it can compete with the mediterránea cuisine
Ok so british fast food is definitely very heavy on meat pies and chips (although I should point out that there's a lot of crossover with south Asian fast food and there are other fast food standards like baked potatoes and various sandwiches). And where the confusion lies is that Brits only really eat British fast food or foreign restaurant food because why would you go to a restaurant to eat the same food you make at home? But there's a whole load of really nice food that just never gets sold in the restaurants. It's definitely British cuisine. British Christmas food is heavily spiced full of dried fruit and marinated in rum or brandy (rum is better), There are few deserts that can measure up to a well made apple crumble or sticky toffee pudding, and haggis is such a satisfying dish that it's inspired poetry.
Fair fa’ your honest, sonsie face, Great Chieftain o’ the Puddin-race! Aboon them a’ ye tak your place, Painch, tripe, or thairm: Weel are ye wordy of a grace As lang ‘s my arm.
The groaning trencher there ye fill, Your hurdies like a distant hill, Your pin wad help to mend a mill In time o’ need, While thro’ your pores the dews distil Like amber bead.
His knife see Rustic-labour dight, An’ cut ye up wi’ ready slight, Trenching your gushing entrails bright, Like onie ditch; And then, O what a glorious sight, Warm-reekin, rich!
Then, horn for horn, they stretch an’ strive: Deil tak the hindmost, on they drive, Till a’ their weel-swall’d kytes belyve Are bent like drums; Then auld Guidman, maist like to rive, Bethankit hums.
Is there that owre his French ragout, Or olio that wad staw a sow, Or fricassee wad mak her spew Wi’ perfect sconner, Looks down wi’ sneering, scornfu’ view On sic a dinner?
Poor devil! see him owre his trash, As feckless as a wither’d rash, His spindle shank a guid whip-lash, His nieve a nit; Thro’ bluidy flood or field to dash, O how unfit!
But mark the Rustic, haggis-fed, The trembling earth resounds his tread, Clap in his walie nieve a blade, He’ll make it whissle; An’ legs, an’ arms, an’ heads will sned, Like taps o’ thrissle.
Ye Pow’rs wha mak mankind your care, And dish them out their bill o’ fare, Auld Scotland wants nae skinking ware That jaups in luggies; But, if ye wish her gratefu’ prayer, Gie her a Haggis!
Japanese and Mexican I think.
Japanese and Mexican for the sake of the question. It's what I grew up eating, and I hate the idea of being without my familiar comfort foods.
Truthfully though, I love eating too much to limit myself regionally or to just two countries. There's so much I haven't tried.
Cajun, and I could stop there. Cajun food is hands down the best of the Southern US foods. Then it's a toss up between Mexican, Tex-Mex, or Greek. I might have a thing for spicy meats/fish and flat breads
Initially I thought French and Chinese, but I love pizza so much, and Greek food is so delicious too.
So, I found a compromise: Mediterranean and Chinese 😋
Japanese & Mediterranean.
So we've narrowed it down to two continents, then? :o
I will never be hungry!
My alternate answer was;
I could probably live forever off of Korean and Caribbean food.
this is absolutely fucking delicious
German and Indian. German for the breads and the sausages, Indian for the variety and spices.
Kimchi and macncheese. I could alternate every day
My local one and either Japanese or Chinese. These folks have nailed it, but I still want to eat something familiar as my staple.
American / Canadian and arabic. Great Shwarma can be so flavorful and delicious. I also can't do without a great burger every once in a long while.
Chinese and Australian
Australian because we don't have a culture of food beyond appropriating the rest of the world's on corner stores and such.
A very cop out answer though
Chinese and pizza maybe?
American Soul Food (Ribs, Fried Chicken, Greens, Mac & Cheese, Buttermilk Biscuits, etc)
and Thai
Just gimme the (Black) American foods that no one else makes.
Now... I go to my local Soul Food place all the time, and we... Thai, now?
(I probably screwed up the joke right there, didn't I?) :S
Chinese, mostly Cantonese food, because I'm just so used to it.
Japanese, because sushi, ramen, robatayaki etc...
I just realized I actually haven't tried much food lol, too picky to try new things... sort of just ate whatever I grew up with...
What does the average westerner eat btw? I feel like my life is just a small bubble.
Levantine and Belgian
Nothing beats a nice juicy shawarma with a waffle for desert. Ok maybe a Jet2 holiday beats it, idk.
Sorry, I don't mean to nitpick, but neither of those things are exclusively Levantine nor Belgian in culinary specialty.
Please do correct where I'm wrong, though.
I'm not exactly specifying that they're originally from these regions, but just the fact that they're most well known for being associated with these regions. They're the first place that comes to my mind when I hear these dishes.
Couscous isn't exclusively Moroccan either, but when I hear couscous, the first place that comes to mind is Morocco.
Ah, okay!
Me, I was only a toddler when I lived a year in Belge, and have no idea what good food would be like from either the French or Flemish areas. :S
Classic Belgium.
Oh dear. :S
Middle Eastern and German
Dürüm and Shawarma
Indian and German .
My favourite main is lamb vindaloo and my favourite cake is black forest gateau. Additionally pretzels and pakoras are great snacks.
No this is the right answer. Indian is a gimme for the question (as most people rightly answered), but German cuisine is so varied it’s not all just bratwurst and potatoes. I mean it’s mostly meat and potatoes, but there’s also wurst and bread. If that doesn’t suit you, bam you’ve got pickled meat and sauerkraut. Don’t know what to eat for dinner whammo-blammo meat, cheese, and bread. Wake up the next morning, guess what same meal just need a soft boiled egg easy peasy!
Mexican and Italian
My problem with picking a cuisine is what that means.
It has become a gripe amongst Italian-Americans where I live that their cuisine isn't considered to be Italian because Italy has changed in a different direction from their traditional cooking. The Italian-Americans can trace some recipes and practices to those who just got off the boat, but those practices don't reflect modern Italian cuisine.
I'd probably pick Italian as one of my cuisines, but I don't know if my practices would match the current cooking practices from the nation-state of Italy.
Did you just say that Italian American is more Italian than Italy?
No. But I am asking how food preserved or maintained through a diaspora culture would be classified.
Interesting question, instinctively I would ask first if it is still recognised or present in the country of origin, if yes, by that then. If not, then depending of why not I would call it [country] historical, [country] diaspora or idk fusion something.
Italian: I can still eat pasta, rice dishes, cheeses, drink bomb coffee, have I memtioned pizza? & let's not start with desserts.
Thai: I can get all the spices and sweetness of SEA food.
Italian and German.
Haitian and German
Japanese and Italian. What is life without katsukaree and pizza?
Japanese and Thai
Probably vietnamese and mexican
South Asian first, probably Middle Eastern second
Mexican and middle eastern and I'd die happy
Mexican & Indian
Mediterranean and mediterranean
Burger
Italian and Korean. I would count a lot of deli food in the Italian category, so you have pasta, pizza, baked dishes, and deli food. Then Korean for the BBQ and kimchi (to fix my stomach after fucking it up with all the deli food.)
What does soup and stew count as?
Earth cuisine
Wet food. But that's cheating.
How in the world is Mexican / South American food not on this list yet?
Tiradito, compa.
Mira.
One of the best meals I have ever had in my life was some ceviche from a little hole in the wall place in Honolulu. Never had tiradito but I assume it is top tier.
But yeah-- "Tiradito" is sort of a more thinly-sliced version of ceviche, marinated in "leche de tigre."
Bah, not trying to start a flame-war here, but... I have my personal choice. (no offense)
Haha yeah I am super exotic traveler, clearly
Mexican, because life is just better with spices.
American, given that American "culture" is really just cultural appropriation with added sugar and calories, I'll get to try something close to every other cuisine.
British - obviously includes the greats like full English/Scottish breakfast, roast dinners, fish and chips, but also includes a wide varieties of Indian/Bangladeshi curries (Balti, Jalfrezi, Madras, Chicken Tikka Masala, etc), and similarly with westernised Chinese dishes.
American - mostly from the south: fried chicken, barbecue, jambalaya, gumbo, etc.
Just because something is made in a place doesn't mean its part of the cuisine belonging to that place. Indian dishes do NOT count for British.
Some "Indian dishes" are British though.
Tikka masala for example.
Yes. I know. But it's not British cuisine.
It is widely regarded as a British dish which British parents make for their British children in their British kitchens. When snack companies like pringles do a selection of British flavours tikka masala is included alongside marmite and roast beef. I'm sorry but there is absolutely no way you can convince me that specifically tikka masala isn't part of British cuisine. Tikka masala sauce is available in many chip shops as a topping. You might as well tell the Irish that they can't have potato bread because potatoes are from north America.
The curries I mentioned are all British though, invented in Britain, by mostly Bangladeshi immigrants. And they're largely unknown in South Asia. You'd really struggle to find a 'Chicken Madras' in Chennai for example.
Indian food. That picture looks delicious!
Asian and Italian. I’ll go Japanese if you want more specific than Asian, ooh or maybe Thai. Hard one
Brazillian and Brazillian again
Mexican and italian. Mexican and Indian, mexican and korean.
So many options!!
Korean and Italian
Pizza and Tacos
Can someone tell me every dish here please.
Recipes too if you have the time
Korean and British
