Curry was introduced to Britain by East India Company men, and in 1733 curry could be found in a coffee house in Haymarket, the middle of London. You can currently find a curry house in nearly every town. 

One of the ways curries have been adapted to British (or just Western) tastes, or simplified in a way, is curry powder. It ignores the immense amount of varieties in curries and spices and uses just one default combination of spices. Nowadays you can even find recipes for a British curry!

The northern French region of Brittany is where pancakes first appeared. 

Shrove Tuesday, also known as Pancake Day, is the traditional feast day prior to Ash Wednesday, when Lent officially begins. Shrove Tuesday occurs between February 3 and March 9, and it occurs 47 days before Easter Sunday. English pancakes are much thinner than their American counterparts and are typically eaten rolled up with sugar and a squeeze of lemon.

Nowadays people experiment with jam, syrup, honey chocolate spread, and toppings.

It’s a traditional British dish. The sausages are made of pork, lamb or beef. It’s often served with onion gravy and sometimes with fried onions and peas. According to a survey done by TV channel Good Food the dish was listed as Britain’s most popular comfort food in 2009. 
 
It is sometimes stated that the term “bangers” came from the World War II. However, the term was already used in 1919. The term bangers was used due to the meat shortages in World War I. Because of the meat shortages the sausages were made with a high-water content, which made them liable to pop under high heat, explaining the term “bangers”.

The Scotch egg was introduced in the Whitby area of Yorkshire. The Scotch egg originally came from North Africa. The recipe made its way  throughout France to Britain. It was during the reign of Elizabeth I. 

Back then the meat that covered the eggs was mostly putrefied and it was really spiced to sweeten the taste of the meat. The scotch egg was originally covered in a creamy fish paste and after sprinkled with breadcrumbs.
Nowadays the egg is covered in sausage meat that is not putrefied. And there are still spices used, but only to give it a heavenly taste.
