Garlic Chilli Chicken Tikka Balti (BIR) Indian Restaurant style

This Garlic Chilli Chicken Balti is a seriously hot and spicy, fantastically flavoured curry made with freshly diced garlic, fresh ginger, fresh chillies and sliced onions. If you like your Madras and Vindaloo then this is the curry for you. Reduce the heat by leaving out the chilli pickle and by adding less or de-seeding the chillies. You can even add a little sugar if required.

I bought one from them a while back, but it's much smaller. They don't seem to do a decent sized bowl

Finding those already made base gravies your last few videos demonstrated recently - I cannot thank you enough. Just don't have the time, - but they are very helpful. Another simple easy-to-follow recipe.

[@steveparadox1]

Yummy! It looks like you used more than 3 tbsp oil though?

[@TheCurryKid]

Slightly less actually, that’s why I love the balti bowls, the curved bottom allows it to almost shallow fry 😀

Cloves are the food of the devil Josh 🤢 I only put 1 in my “pilau” potatoes when par boiling, that’s the only time they get a look in 😉

3:26. Best curry tuition on KZbin. Can I ask why garam masala doesn’t go in at the beginning with the other spices. Thanks.

[@TheCurryKid]

Thanks so much, truly appreciated. It’s added at the end to retain the flavours, they got lost if added to early. I sometimes also add fresh garlic near the end if I want to boost that as well

[@jonnylawrence7766]

Hi Josh another great video. I notice you mention chilli pickle in the description but I didn't see it added in the video. Any tips on how much to use and when to add it? Thanks

[@TheCurryKid]

Hi, many thanks. I think that’s a typo so I’ll sort that in the morning 😁 you could add a little mr naga oil, 1/4 - 1/2 tsp at the end and stir through.

[@GavinGrahamMackemGav21]

I added a few slithers of green and red peppers after the onions have softened.. Great recipe al the same

[@TheCurryKid]

Sounds great! Thanks for sharing the tips :)

This looks amazing I was going to do a garlic chilli curry but have Birmingham Balti bowls so will try this thanks Ps I put a bit of red food colouring in my tomato purée to add a bit more colour to some curries

[@TheCurryKid]

Hope you enjoy, thanks for the colouring idea, I've never thought of that.

[@stevebehan]

For madras Vindaloo etc let looks great in them but not to over the top so you can see the curry from space if you know what I mean

[@TheCurryKid]

lol

[@stevebehan]

Ps try a few splashes of Worcestershire sauce it brings up to next level with some fresh coriander in 👍

[@TheCurryKid]

Thanks Steve, which dish are you using that in?

[@philipatkinson7039]

Excellent again kid and my favourite and most of my mates favourite and they are always asking me to make it for them. I make a garlic chilli paste and when added for the last 3 minutes brings out an amazing flavour. This is the paste i make ,180 grams of peeled garlic, 20 grams of chopped ginger, 20 thin green chilli's, 1tbls of mango chutney, 1tsp of lemon juice, half a tsp distilled vinegar and 1tbls of vegetable oil. Add all the ingredients into a food blender and blend until smooth. It will freeze well for a couple of months but doesn't last that long lol 😆 this will make about 2 onion salad tubs and for each curry a tpsoon of the paste is needed. Give it a try and let me know what you think kid 👍👌

[@TheCurryKid]

Thanks Philip, that sounds awesome so I'll definitely give it a try. I'm slowly taking over the freezer with pots of paste :)

[@philipatkinson7039]

[@CharliePalmer-ss1mi]

Hey Josh, loving your recipes. Going to do this one tonight in my new Birmingham balti .. one question, is this a recipe for one person?

[@TheCurryKid]

Hope you enjoy. Yes all my recipes are very generous 1 person dishes.

[@CharliePalmer-ss1mi]

@@TheCurryKid brilliant thanks for the prompt response, going to use your flatbreads to clean the balti🤣

[@TheCurryKid]

Awesome, let me know what you think. One tip I have is always rub butter over the flatbread when cooked and wrap in tinfoil, even for a minute. Makes a huge difference in softness and taste

[@CharliePalmer-ss1mi]

@@TheCurryKid I'll definitely do that. Will the balti fit double the recipe do you think? Also, doing a lot of wok cooking outside on the Ecozoom Versa rocket stove, a similar concept to the clay stoves used across Asia and a lot of fun!

[@CharliePalmer-ss1mi]

Update - absolutely superb!

[@gordon6029]

That’s a new balti you have there. It looks to be kind of heavy and very non-stick?
