Among other groups that influenced it we can name the Persians, Mongolians, Turks, the British and the Portuguese.

The is specific to India and it originated from the combination of Islamic principles with the gravies characteristic to India. New dishes appeared in Indian cuisine - pilafs, kebabs and others characteristic to different migratory populations. Mughals became known as expert cooks and their dishes were appreciated both in India and in the neighboring countries. Potatoes were introduced in India by the Portuguese in the 17th century and other European influences played their part as well. As you can see in almost any part of India today, the East and the West met in the middle of India and so there is not one style of cooking or one type of religion. India is, in its heart, the true melting pot of society, culture, and cooking. Modern Indian cuisine has taken a global aspect, and is appreciated both at home in New Delhi and in cities like New York or Paris. The last few decades have seen a huge increase in Indian cuisine popularity and the Indian fast food industry along with Bollywood is also growing.
