1/4 teaspoon Fenugreek Leaves (soak in a little water before adding)
2 pinches Salt
4 tablespoons Basic Curry Sauce
1 portion Chicken (pre cooked)
A few Slices of Onion
1/2 teaspoon Lemon juice
2 pinches Garam Masala
1/2 tablespoon Chopped coriander leaves



Directions:


Heat the oil in a frying pan, add the sliced pepper and allow to sizzle. Add the special spice mixture, chilli powder, fenugreek leaves and salt.

After ten seconds add the basic curry sauce and stir until everything is mixed thoroughly. Add the chicken and stir well until it is is thoroughly heated. Transfer to the hot, sizzling balti serving dish.

Add the lemon juice to the side of the serving dish, sprinkle with the garam masala, garnish with chopped coriander and serve.
