Indian cuisine is the general term for the wide variety of cooking styles from India.
The very word "curry" is, in fact, a vague anglicisation with no real meaning in traditional Indian cooking; as in most cuisines, seasoned vegetable and meat dishes are called by thousands of different names depending on the region, ingredients and method of preparation.
In general Indian food is prepared with delicate mixtures of many different fresh and dried spices, and the exact recipes often vary greatly from one household to the next.

 Brazil: Backgrounder
The extraordinary cuisine of Brazil is an amalgam of the cooking heritage of three disparate groups of people: the native Indians, the conquering Portuguese and the African slaves they brought to work in the sugar cane fields.
It is not surprising then that the national cuisine of Brazil is more a collection of unique regional ones; and that certain exotic regional fruits and fish are hardly known elsewhere in the country.
It was the African cooks in the colonial kitchens of the sugar cane barons, however, who provided the strongest influence in generating what would be considered a Brazilian cuisine.
