Balti Chicken


Due to request from Cikgu Ju, here is the recipe for Balti chicken @ kari bangla which I learnt from Jalal's mum (my son, Aiman's best friend at Raddlebarn School) a year ago when we first came to the land of Britain. We were invited for lunch at their house at Cherrington Rd, and wallah, her mum was indeed a good cook. Really enjoyed the meal. Later I brought a kg of lamb and requested her to show me how to cook this recipe.

For Ju,
