Where we think vindaloo is from: India.
Where vindaloo is really from: Portugal.
It’s starting to feel like Portugal doesn’t quite get the credit it deserves when it comes to “native” food…
While many foods have been taken from India and adapted over time, vindaloo isn’t one of them. Considered an Indian takeaway favorite, it’s said that its very name is actually a garbled pronunciation of the Portuguese dish, Carne de Vinha D’alhos – a meat dish that’s marinated in wine vinegar and garlic.
This meat dish was introduced to the Goa region of India by Portuguese settlers in the 15th century, having been widely eaten in Portugal for centuries before. As wine-vinegar wasn’t a thing in India, locally produced ingredients such as tamarind, black pepper, and cardamom were used instead. Perhaps most importantly, the addition of chili peppers served as a legacy for Portugal’s empire by way of South America.
what part you didn't understand ?
1 - "Portugal bought a centuries-old Andalusian dish called peshkado frito to the UK in the 1400s"
and .......................................
2 - "when the potato became popular in the 1800s, they made the perfect accompaniment"
and ......................................
3 - "Now you know where “fish and chip Friday” comes from!"
Actually, a quick Google search for "origins of churros" turns up the following link about the 4th entry down, and does mention China.

But I do see where you got the idea, "Iced Cream". Why would anyone be out in freezing weather with a bag of Cream unless the churn hadn't been invented yet.
