Next, we travel to India, the land of spices, for the infamous Phall Curry. Originating from the Indian subcontinent's British Bangladeshi community, this dish is not for the faint-hearted. Phall Curry incorporates the searing heat of the Bhut Jolokia, or Ghost Pepper, one of the world's hottest chilies. The curry's intense heat is balanced with the rich flavors of garam masala, turmeric, and cumin. Despite its fiery reputation, Phall Curry has a dedicated fan base, with spicy food lovers taking up the "Phall Challenge" to finish a bowl without reaching for a cooling yogurt drink.
