Those pics have given me a real appetite Rob that needs to be satisfied.  Dial a dinner this evening I think but may cook a hot one on Friday not using traditional method rather than base sauce.

Look fwd to your new/old ideas Rob.

Food looks really good.

Went last night. First time on a Saturday evening. It was busy. The head chef (the Uncle) was there. He looked to be supervising rather than cooking. Photos and thoughts to follow. Balti chicken and Balti chicken (madras). Had some leftover homemade to use up, so the madras has gone in the freezer. Will have the regular balti tonight, with some of their "sweet" rice. Had a good taste of both as soon as I got home though. The regular was most comparable with Mick's Al Frash, but first impression is that it surpassed it, which I honestly didn't think was going to be possible. We will have to see.

Spotted something else unusual on their Balti menu that I have missed before. Whilst there is a whole raft of baltis available, there is one thing you cannot have in your curry; it's not on the menu (not even as a starter). Tikka.

This is Lidl, I don't get to Aldi. Next time they have a Taste of Asia week I'll have a look, sometimes they have proper brand names, not just their own.

If anyone is interested, it's Ramadan week at Lidl from Thursday.
Spices, rice, flour etc. on sale.
