Yes, there have been a few comments mentioning Tikka masala, but can you name another British dish with flavor? I don’t think so.

Let's kick off with curries! We've been eating 'curry' since 1598, so longer than a lot of other countries have existed. As well as chicken tikka masalla, we've adapted or invented a few, such as:

  • Madras curries
  • Jalfrezi curries
  • Balti curries
  • Phall curries

For other British dishes with flavour, try (in no particular order):

  • Any Sunday roast; beef with Yorkshires and horseradish sauce, pork with applesauce, lamb with mint sauce.
  • Full English, full Scottish, Ulster Fry, Full Welsh
  • Kedgeree
  • Steak and kidney pudding
  • Cream tea
  • A proper ploughman's lunch
  • Sausage, mash, onion gravy with English mustard
  • Cullen skink
  • Shepherd's pie / cottage pie
  • Fish pie
  • Irish stew
  • Lancashire Hot Pot
  • Marmite on toast
  • Bacon sarnie
  • Kippers
  • Sheffield fishcake butty
  • Welsh rarebit
