Secrets of the Balti - The Iconic Curry Born in Birmingham 🍛

In this mini documentary I got to meet the Balti advocate and lover of all things Birmingham, Andy Munro who has been campaigning for heritage status for the balti curry and, if you've ever had a balti outside of Birmingham, you'll rightfully see why.

Sit back, and listen to how balti started, the heyday of the Balti Triangle and sadly the decline in recent years of Birmingham's most iconic dish.

Check out Andy's Blog on his website

For those new to Balti, it's essentially a curry cooked and served in the same bowl which resembles a small wok or mini karahi pan but is made of pressed steel as apposed to caste iron.

I have been offering an Authentic Birmingham Balti Cookery class for several years now, if you're interested in learning to cook an amazing Balti etc, check this link out; https://classbento.co.uk/w/28u8?cbm=view
