OK, so the term Balti really refers to everything.........as such a chicken bulti is just a basic mix.

- Please excuse my stupidity, no matter what type/style of curry I do they ALL require the base sause?

- Can this be mixed, contained and fozen?

-The spice mix < This is just a selection (pre-prepared) mix of spices to save people time of adding them individually? again there seems to be many versions of this?

- The spice mix < this goes into the base sause, and in with main chicken?

- Also, I looked at one and it says add a BALTI PASTE? is this a seperate sause to the spice mix? or is this a pre-mixed of the shelf branded spice mix?

Thank you all for this help!! and for being so patient!!

I think I need to look at more specific shops.......places like Sainsbury's struggle with some of this stuff.....or what I have seen is ?3.00 for the smallest of jars lol

OOooo just found this - http://www.spicesofindia.co.uk/acatalog/Chicken-Balti-Recipe.html
What do you think? it says all need to add is this so called balti paste - thats it?? would this be like buying an uncle bens pre-made sause? cause I can't bare these pre-made Sherwoods etc. I'm guessing this is the taste I would get?

Hello everyone, I've spent the last few weeks looking over the internet at different ways of cooking a very simple Chicken Balti, and I've come away more confused than I could ever imagine

seems there are so many different versions of one dish

Please be patient with me, as I'm not a great cook, but also have VERY little knowledge of where to begin.

All I want to be able to do is a nice traditional Chicken Balti

CAN ANYONE HELP..........I have a basic idea, but after reading/watching clips I'm just not sure which way is the best/simplest, most traditional to what we have eaten in the Indian.

A BIG hello to everyone.......I hope you can help me

John
