The term 'curry' generally means South Asian food e.g. Indian, Pakistani & Bengali, or Anglo Asian cuisine here. You can get East Asian curries, Chinese takeaways do them too but they are nowhere near as popular (or as good imo), if a Brit says 'curry' they will mean the Indian/Pakistani/Bengali stuff, not Thai/Chinese etc.

I live in the Midlands (Birmingham), curry is very popular here cos there's a very large Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi community in the city, one of our regional dishes created here is the Balti.

Madras
Rogan Josh
Tikka Masala
Korma
Vindaloo
Biryani

^ As main courses these would all be popular choices (typically with a starter like onion bhajis, tandoori chicken, sheek kebab, keema naan etc).

Vindaloo in particular is just excellent and is a great dish to cook.
