Curry fr. ME curreien, AN curreier 'to arrange, curry' fr. VL conredare 'to make ready'. Supposedly, curry favor is from ME currayen favel with favel, fauvel being a fallow colored horse, which was a symbol of deceit, so, to be hypocritical. [Cribbed from the AH dictionary.]

Curry, as in the yummy Indian food, from the kari leaf, Murraya koenigii, (kari is a Tamil or Dravidian word I assume), later transfered to the powder of many spices which is the curry powder of today.
