A meal from the Indian subcontinent is chicken curry. It is widespread in the British Isles, the Caribbean, Southeast Asia, Japan, and the Indian subcontinent. Chicken is simmered in an onion-and-tomato-based sauce that is flavoured with ginger, garlic, tomato puree, chilli peppers, and a variety of spices, frequently including turmeric, cumin, coriander, cinnamon, and cardamom.
