== History ==

{{main|History of Indian cuisine}}

Indians have used leafy vegetables, lentils, and milk products such as yogurt and ghee throughout their history. They also used spices such as cumin and coriander. Black pepper, which is native to India, was often used by 400 A.D. The Greeks brought saffron and the Chinese introduced tea. The [[Portuguese people|Portuguese]] and [[British people|British]] made red chili, potato and cauliflower popular after 1700 A.D. [[Mongols|Mughals]], who began arriving in India after 1200, saw food as an art and many of their dishes are cooked with as many as 25 spices. They also used rose water, cashews, raisins, and almonds.

In the late 18th and early 19th century, an autobiography of the Scottish [[Robert Lindsay (Sylhet)|Robert Lindsay]] mentions a [[Sylhetis|Sylheti]] man called Saeed Ullah cooking a curry for Lindsay's family. This is possibly the oldest record of Indian cuisine in the [[United Kingdom]].

===Bangladeshi cuisine===

{{main|Bangladeshi cuisine|Bengali cuisine}}

Bangladeshi cuisine is dominated by Bengali cuisine and has been shaped by the diverse [[History of Bangladesh|history]] and riverine [[geography of Bangladesh]]. The country has a [[tropical monsoon climate]]. [[Rice]] is the main [[staple food]] of Bangladeshi people and it is served with a wide range of [[Curry|curries]].

[[File:Bangladeshi cuisine.png|thumb|left|Traditional Bangladeshi Meal: [[Mustard seed]] [[Ilish]] [[Curry]], Dhakai [[Biryani]] and [[Pitha]]]] Bangladeshi dishes exhibit strong [[aromatic]] flavours; and often include [[Egg (food)|eggs]], [[potatoes]], [[tomatoes]] and [[aubergines]]. A variety of [[spices]] and [[herbs]], along with [[mustard oil]] and [[ghee]], is used in Bangladeshi cooking. The main breads are [[naan]], [[paratha|porota]], [[roti]], [[bakarkhani]] and [[luchi]]. [[Dal]] is the second most important staple food which is served with rice/porota/luchi. [[Fish as food|Fish]] is a staple in Bangladeshi cuisine, especially [[freshwater fish]], which is a distinctive feature of the country's gastronomy. Major fish dishes include ''ilish'' ([[ilish|hilsa]]'')'', ''pabda'' ([[Ompok bimaculatus|butterfish]]), ''rui'' ([[rohu]]), ''pangash'' ([[pangas catfish]]), ''chitol'' ([[clown knifefish]]), ''magur'' ([[walking catfish]]), ''bhetki'' ([[barramundi]]) and [[tilapia]]. Meat consumption includes [[beef]], [[Lamb and mutton|lamb]], [[venison]], [[Chicken (food)|chicken]], [[Duck (food)|duck]], [[Squab (food)|squab]] and [[koel]]. Vegetable dishes, either mashed (''bhorta''), boiled (''sabji''), or leaf-based (''[[saag]]''), are widely served. Seafood such as [[Lobster#As food|lobster]]s and [[shrimp and prawn as food|shrimps]] are also often prevalent.

[[Islamic dietary law]]s are prevalent across Bangladesh. Halal foods are food items that Muslims are allowed to eat and drink under Islamic dietary guidelines. The criteria specifies both what foods are allowed, and how the food must be prepared. The foods addressed are mostly types of meat allowed in Islam. Bangladeshi people follow certain rules and regulations while eating. It includes warm hospitality and particular ways of serving as well. This is known as ''Bangaliketa'' ({{langx|bn|বাঙালি কেতা}}). The culture also defines the way to invite people to weddings and for dinner. Gifts are given on certain occasions. ''Bangaliketa'' also includes a way of serving utensils in a proper manner. Bengali cuisine has the only traditionally developed multi-course tradition from the subcontinent that is analogous in structure to the modern ''[[service à la russe]]'' style of [[French cuisine]], with food served course-wise rather than all at once.
