There are two schools of thought about the name ‘balti’; one is that it originates from Baltistan in Northern Pakistan, the other that it is a British translation of the Urdu word for ‘bucket’ which refers to the dish the curry is cooked and served in. Whichever is true, it’s now a ubiquitous curry house dish, with the greatest concentration of balti restaurants in the ‘Balti Triangle’ - an area around Moseley and Sparkbrook in Birmingham. The classic balti is spicy but not hot and has a lovely depth of flavour from the spices that can’t be achieved by the use of a regular curry powder. It’s served here with cauliflower 90, jeera (cumin) rice, a refreshing onion salad and green coriander raita.
