Basic Balti Sauce

Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Balti Indian
Sauces Mc

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
3 T Vegetable oil
4 Onions, chopped
Small piece of ginger,
Peeled and grated
1 Large garlic clove, crushed
1 Tomato, chopped
1 T Paprika
1/2 t Turmeric
1/2 t Cumin (ground)
1/2 t Ground coriander
1 t Chili powder
Fresh chopped coriander
(a handful)
Salt to taste

Heat the oil in a large saucepan over moderate heat. Fry the onions,
ginger and garlic until the onions are translucent. Add the tomato and
stir-fry, breaking it up with the spoon. Pour in 300 ml / 1/2 UK pint
water, and stir in the other ingredients. Bring to the boil. Lower heat,
cover and simmer for 30 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Pour

a single recipe for Balti sauce than there’s a single recipe for chili.
Some cooks like more garlic, some more chili powder; some use fresh
chilies as well: some add yogurt, coconut, cream…you name it.)
