Lamb Balti Recipe


Lamb Balti Recipe
This curry works just as well if you use skinless chicken thighs or casserole steak instead of lamb. It's hot and sweet, so do yourself a favour and get stuck in.

Sorry Capedread! I didn't read this recipe first.
I see how you used the balti sauce now. I really like the sound of the sauce and wouldn't mind more suggestions for it's use.
