Tribal People Try Curry Goat For the First Time
About this video
In this Tribal People Try video the tribe meet curry for the first time. Most of them had never seen it before the camera started, so the first minute is questions — what is it, what's in it, how do you eat it — and then the plates go round.
What is curry?
Curry is the western word for the whole family of South Asian gravies: karahi, korma, rogan josh, vindaloo, Japanese katsu curry, Thai and Malaysian curries. In these videos a 'curry' from a jar or a restaurant abroad meets people who cook the real thing daily.
What to watch for
The tribe are the experts here, and a supermarket korma or a Japanese curry block gets graded like a student's homework — usually kindly, sometimes not. British curry-house dishes like chicken tikka masala are recognised as distant relatives.
The comparison they always make
Salan is the everyday word: an onion-tomato-ginger-garlic base, meat or vegetables, whole and ground spices, cooked until the oil separates. Anything called curry is compared to that morning's salan.
