Definitive contents and lavishly illustrated. This is the second in the trilogy of Pat Chapman’s stunning Curry Bibles. It is the sister volume to the New Curry Bible and Pat Chapman’s Vegetable Curry Bible (both available in our New Books sections of our Online shop).
The book begins briefly traces the history of the British Balti and takes a visit to a Birmingham Balti House kitchen. It then studies the utensils and specialised ingredients used, and continues with step-by-step colour photo sequences showing how to make basic items, like the all-important curry gravy, garam masala, ghee and paneer, etc. There are over 200 recipes, including 120 Balti dishes, plus further recipes for starters, rice and bread, accompaniments and desserts. There are descriptions, and pictures of every favourite dish at the Balti House. The book concludes with a voyage round the Asian store, a comprehensive Glossary, store cupboard list and a really useful index. A unique, must-read, highly detailed illustrated Ingredients File is interspersed throughout the book with colour photos of the cuts of meat, game and poultry needed plus a study of eggs, fish and shelfish, vegetables, pulses and grain.
The book is a must for the Baltiholic!!!
