NOTHING BEATS THE TASTE
A HERITAGE WE CAN BE PROUD OF...
Bean curry has origins in Indian cuisine, using legumes like chickpeas and lentils with traditional spices. It spread to the Caribbean and African regions through Indian labourers during colonial times, where it adapted to local ingredients and flavours. The dish is known for its versatility and nutritional value.
