They brought spices, and seeds, and recipes. And when inevitably, the influences and memories of the mother cuisine faded, Durban curry became its own thing. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRecognisably different from its roots: redder, hotter.

It continues, as it did right from the beginning, to respond to new circumstances and needs. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnd the point about our first investigation into what made it distinctive is that it was “just a taste'.
