''British Interpretation Of...'': Former UK Diplomat Shares Pic Of Dish He Learnt While Living In Hyderabad

Food is an important part of cultural heritage and national identity. And when it comes to India, the cuisine of the country is quite extensive and rich and tells a tale of different regions across the country. Indian food has been gaining massive popularity in the world. Recently, a former UK diplomat, who served in India for 5 years, shared how he prepared a dish which was a British interpretation of Indian cuisine.

Taking to Twitter, Dr Andrew Fleming shared that his father was suffering from a chest infection, so he made something from him. He prepared prawn curry with rice and informed that he learnt the dish during his five years in Hyderabad.

''As my last post hinted my father has been unwell so Iast night I had to venture into the kitchen. And what better than for someone with a lingering chest infection than a nice British interpretation of Indian cuisine with a few secret add-ons I learnt about during 5 years in #Hyderabad?'' Mr Fleming wrote, while sharing a picture of the dish.
