Spice and curry

Let the curry simmer to allow flavors to meld together.

Balance spicy heat with cooling ingredients like yogurt or coconut milk.

Caribbean curries include spices like allspice and sometimes fruit like mango.

Southeast Asian curries often include fresh herbs like Thai basil and kaffir lime leaves.

In Indian cuisine, spice blends vary significantly by region (e.g., garam masala in the north, coconut-based curries in the south).
