[@kevcleaver]

I've seen the Balti Triangle change so much over the 35 years I've been working / visiting there. It's great to see that some things have stayed the same high quality.

[@pattiboychannel311]

Wow, thats a lot of curries, goes to show how good the restaurant is, also food looked delicious

[@Winklenut]

Oh the mysteries you have created here, Richard. Looked delicious 👍.

[@niceymcjabberton5034]

Went there last night, great staff and the balti i had was incredible. Shababs is outstanding! 👌🏼

[@kevinwhite4893]

Hi Richard. Another stunner. Cooked with Shababs gravy, your Chicken Tikka and served in a Birmingham Balti Bowl. The taste was amazing. What a great series this has been. Great to see you cook it. Regards. Kevin

[@MistyRicardo]

Thanks Kevin 🙏🙏🙏

[@anthony342]

lovely to see and hear you

[@jasonwil]

The day this was released I went to my own local Indian restaurant and requested it. I had two chapatis instead of rice and it was amazing.

[@markyeadon7541]

Lovely to see you cooking Richard, it looks amazing mate

[@MistyRicardo]

Thanks very much Mark.

[@HodgdonH110]

Wow until I saw Zaf after hearing him talk I thought Jasper Carrot was there too - Wow I miss Birmingham curries - ex-Brummie now an American living in Nashville - PLEASE Zaf open a Balti house here in Nashville PLEEEAAASSSE

[@best7best711]

Looks absolutely amazing 👏

[@mistermarkjoel]

This is the best curry cooking video I have ever seen!

[@MistyRicardo]

Thanks.

[@livegarden554]

Amazing

[@jt6945]

Would be great to get a recipe for the chicken tikka marinade from one of these restaurants / takeaways Thx

[@MGVELO]

Absolutely fantastic to see the man, the legend - Richard Sayce. I always thought it was Gordon Ramsay behind the camera 😊 Brilliant Video Richard and Zaf. My Balti bowl is in the post and can’t wait to try it out this week. On the balti care side of things, how do you go about cleaning it as I’m aware the balti builds up layers of flavour over time. Any help is appreciated 👍🏻

[@raveon7260]

amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing ...

[@paultrappett3487]

So no mix powder etc. Must all be in the base gravy?

[@richardcoxon8956]

Good one 🙂. Is there a difference between balti base gravy and what you may find in a regular BIR restaurant?

[@MistyRicardo]

Yes, there is and I'm working on one.

[@MistyRicardo]

Thanks

[@richardcoxon8956]

Excellent...sounds interesting...

[@philipatkinson7039]

Can't wait for that richard and that base as loads of oil which when added is kissed by the high flame which can only mean one thing. More flavour 👍👌

[@RotationFSX]

@@MistyRicardo Does it taste more smokey by any chance?

[@ArcadiaRugSpa]

I'm amazed that there was no real curry spices other than coriander powder.

[@duncanmit5307]

👍💜👍💜👍

[@malbig2344]

Did I miss the mixed powder being added?

[@MistyRicardo]

They don't use a mix powder

[@malbig2344]

@@MistyRicardo are the spices already in the base gravy...? Love your books by the way.

[@MistyRicardo]

Thanks 👍 They use whole spices in the their base gravy which are then blended in. I recreated Shababs recipe for cooking at home: mistyricardo.com/balti-base-gravy-recipe/

[@envy99976]

A bit stingy on the chicken I think.

[@MistyRicardo]

It was plenty and the chickpeas are in there too.

[@lukecowell7516]

4 peices of chicking aint plenty and chick peas are horrid

[@envy99976]

@@MistyRicardo it does look delicious. I'm going to try and make it...with a bit more chicken 😁

[@loyalty786]

Presentation wise it seems abit Burnt, I'm Sure the Taste will be okay, How ever iv seen better, Apologise No Offence, Just being Honest, Thank you

[@paultrappett3487]

I'll be brutally honest, it looks burnt to me. Flame way too high. But to be fair I've never been there.

[@MistyRicardo]

The charred edges add a lot to the flavour. It's not really burnt.
