It was fun to read and interesting, though very Anglocentric. Still interesting, though, because I hadn't realized how much impact Indian food had on English food.

Do you suppose that it could have been an Anglo-Indian version of biryani? I'm reading this fascinating book by Lizzie Collingham titled "Curry, A Tale of Cooks and Conquerors." She writes about the various waves of invaders and how they changed was Indian cooking. For instance, cauliflower and certain types of apples introduced by the British and were originall looked upon with suspicion. Chilis came from the New World as did squash, corn, potatoes and pumpkins. Anyway, given how multi-layered Indian cooking is, I suspect that the mysterious dish beginning with a "B" is some Anglo or British variation on biryani.
