Kaeng garee

Yellow curry is a Thai dish made from cumin, coriander, turmeric, fenugreek, garlic, salt, bay leaf, lemongrass, cayenne pepper, ginger, makrut lime, mace and cinnamon. It is generally milder than other Thai curries, being that it contains less chilli. It is one of three major kinds of Thai curry that are commonly found in Thai restaurants in the West. There are other curry types in Thai cuisine, several of which are yellow. Pre-packaged curry powder of Indian origin is sometimes also referred to as yellow curry in Western countries but is a different blend of spices from Thai yellow curry. Thai yellow curry, outside Thailand, usually refers to the dish kaeng kari. This curry is milder and often less oily than other Thai curries. It is the result of the influence of British naval cuisine, disseminated across Asia in the late 19th and early 20th centuries due to British military presence. It originally incorporated the quintessential Anglo-Indian invention, curry powder, into the traditional curry paste (chilies, garlic, shallots, lemongrass, cilantro roots, galangal). Sometimes a touch of palm sugar or a similar sweetener will be added, depending on the sweetness of the coconut milk.[citation needed]
