Curries - as we know them - are an invention of the British Raj. They are thought to have been invented in the 19th century for members of the East India Company. Steenbergs has developed their own organic Madras Curry Powder that is really versatile – use a small amount to lift a vegetable soup or as a dry marinade on beef before barbecuing or mixed with mayonnaise for curried eggs during Christmas or perhaps even for a Saturday night curry!
