Balti with Coriander Raita
There are two schools of thought about the origins of the name ‘balti’ - one is that it came from Baltistan in Northern Pakistan, the other that it's 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 become a classic throughout Britain! The typical balti is spicy but not hot and has a lovely depth of flavour from the blend of spices that can’t be achieved by the use of a regular curry powder. It’s a deliciously simple dinner served as it is here with rice, an onion and cucumber salad and raita.

This was a true delight , simple to follow the recipe , we changed the lamb or cauliflower for chicken so tasted as we went to make sure the meat was cooked . The taste was great , enough heat and spice to suit our taste ,we also added fresh coriander to the curry sauce at the end of cooking which we feel lifts the taste . served with the raita , but also added fresh chopped tomato to the cucumber and onion, will have this again no problem
