Quote from: mickdabass on October 21, 2013, 04:38 PMHi Mick. I havn't added much to this thread, I have been lurking in the background since it started just taking in what people have been writing. I think a proper balti is the epitome of all curries personally and would love to make one taste half as good as a decent TA and this one you've posted up looks awesome. Can I please ask, what is the RCR balti base that you used? I've not seen this mentioned on here before. This may be a stupid question but do baltis have specific bases all of their own that are different to standard BIR curries, ie madrases, bhunas etc?
Made this last night and must admit it was one tasty balti. I made my own ghee- what a revelation that was! The shop bought stuff taints the food with an unpleasant odour, but the home made stuff gives the curry a richer, creamier flavour. Shall definitely make some more for my next curries. The base was the rcr balti one Ive been using for a while now, and the secret ingredient added was 1/2 tsp pomegranate seeds. I used 2 tsp of the Balti Spice mix, and the only other inclusion was 1 coarsely chopped tomato. I will omit the tomato next time round
Many Thanks
Mike
