\s anything more Italian than a plate of spaghetti
with meatballs in tomato sauce? Well, actually,
in Italy, this dish is usualy on the menu only in
restaurants that are popular with tourists. Between
100 and 150 years ago, millions of Italians moved
to the US. In their new county, meat, spaghetti
and tinned tomatoes were all cheap and easy to
{ind in the shops. So people invented a new recipe
with these three ingredients.
In Britain, milions of people go to Indian
restaurants every week and among their favourite
choices is chicken tikka masala, a dish made with
spices and a creamy tomato sauce. However, there
are several stories that suggest chicken tikka masala
