Most curries you can get in the UK were invented there.

As a quick rule of thumb, if it looks like it has gravy or thick sauce someone from India wouldn't recognise it

What?

Mate, we've been making gravys and thick sauces before the Brits came along. Especially people in coastal regions who use coconut in nearly everything.

I think British people have a very different definition of gravy - more like meat juice thickened with flour and optionally some other stuff like caramel and onions. As I understand, they don't put vegetables, herbs or spices.

Yeah exactly my thinking, Indians would be disgusted by an englishes northerners gravy. They have no idea
