Balti Tandoori Murgh Masala

[unclefrank]

Been working on this for a few weeks now and think i have finely got it.
The only thing missing is the boiled egg and next time i make it will cut chicken into strips like my local.
I used
300ml Basic Balti
1-1.5 Chef's Spoon Keema
1 Chef's Spoon CTM Sauce
1 Block Red Chilli
1 Tbsp Yoghurt
method
Add Balti sauce and chicken stir until chicken is sealed.
Then add keema, CTM sauce, red chilli and stir.
Cook for around 4-5 minutes or until it thickens.
Then add yoghurt and stir.

Balti Sauce- i used from another source.

Interesting looking dish UF, thanks for posting

A few questions, if you don't mind:

• What is "Basic Balti"? I presume you mean the curry base? Can you post the recipe please (in the relevant recipe section)?
• What's the "CTM sauce"? Can you post the recipe please (in the relevant recipe section)?
• What is "Block Red Chilli"? I presume this frozen fresh chillies?

Cheers,

[chef888]

CA I must apologise for the late reply.
Red Chilli block is indeed the frozen type.
The Basic Balti is the one from another site, you could use the Birmingham Balti book one also.
The Chicken Tikka Masala can also be any one you choose even yours

Thanks for clarifying UF.

The Chicken Tikka Masala can also be any one you choose even yours

I tend to use a dry tandoori masala whereas you state "Chicken Tikka Masala Sauce". However, I presume this might be a different animal (e.g. yoghurt plus commercially jarred tandoori/tikka based "sauce")?

If I understand you correctly, by "Balti Sauce", you mean some sort of "Balti Curry Base"? If so, how does this differ from a "normal" curry base?

Sorry, I don't wish to be difficult, I'm just trying to solicit sufficient information so that others can faithfully reproduce your recipe/photo.

Then we can move your thread back to the recipe section of the forum

I use a Chicken Balti recipe but omit the chicken and the CTM is Lorrydoo's recipe from another site again omitting the chicken.
The two "sauces" are the finished dishes but without chicken.
Hope that's clearer now.
