Vietnamese Curry

The French once occupied the trading ports of both Saigon in Vietnam and Pondicherry in India and consequently a number of Indians migrated to Vietnam bringing precious dried spices with them.

Curry or ‘cà ri’ has been popular there ever since - it’s particularly good served with freshly sliced baguette!
