authentic indian CuisineIndian cooking derives from a 5000 year old timeline, during which the culture and geographical boundaries have significantly evolved. The culinary tradition that we experience today has been enriched by the influence of both rulers and travellers, leading to new terms such as sub-continental cuisine, with varied parts of the mainland enriching its indigenous culinary identity. This is very apparent in some of the unique regional cuisines brought to you at Simply Spice by our own finest Indian chefs.
