History of Indian Cuisine in Thailand

The history of Indian cuisine in Thailand is a testament to centuries of cultural interchange and shared culinary traditions, dating back to ancient trade routes that connected the Indian subcontinent with Southeast Asia. These historical ties laid the foundation for a deep and lasting influence of Indian culinary practices on Thai cuisine. Indian traders and settlers introduced a variety of spices, cooking techniques, and dishes to Thailand, enriching the local food culture with flavors like turmeric, cumin, and coriander. Over time, these ingredients became integral to Thai cooking, illustrating the seamless integration of Indian gastronomy into the fabric of Thai food culture. The presence of a significant Indian community in Bangkok, established over generations, has also played a crucial role in maintaining and evolving the tradition of Indian cuisine within the city.
