Thai massaman curry is more spicy than hot: it has cinnamon, cardamom, and nutmeg. This is not typical for Thailand, and this curry is called "children's" here. There is a theory that this type of curry came to Thailand from Iranian cuisine, but the fish sauce in the composition is a purely Thai feature.
