    This is one of my favourite spices. Even at restaurants, I've only tasted it a few times & OMG!!! so nice. I really need to buy a hot burner for home. I assume the pan has some part in this given the slope of the sides as well.

      Hi Karlosss. Last year we had a new kitchen fitted and made the mistake of getting an induction hob. And no matter what you read, it's nowhere near as good as a hot gas burner. I purchased a burner just like Al's in this video and it so so good. Not for indoor use mind so careful if you decide to! And yes, the sloping pans are important, and that's where induction hobs are no good.

I like chicken tikka in my curries, if I was to do a chicken tikka balti, would you suggest pre cooking the marinated chicken first, or cooking it from raw in the balti dish ?

    If I was to make this my way, I would be marinating the meat for a few hours in all the spices, cooking of the onions for 30 minutes then the sauce for 20 minutes and the meat for another 30. That's authentic Indian timing. Can't make a real dish in less than 1 hour let alone 10 minutes. Sory Al you do good things but I gotta keep it real.
