A simple vegetarian Balti with a dash of apple I made up in the supermarket. Very tasty and moderately spicy. Made using 'Pataks Balti curry paste - tomato & coriander' which is made in the UK. It tastes so good I have to share it (first recipe on here). So many times things like this don't work for me - this time it did. (there is another vegetable Balti on here which looks good too)
Ingredients:
1 -2 tablespoon olive oil (might work better with vegetable oil )
1 onion
1 stick celery
1 carrot
100 g balti curry paste, pataks tomato & coriander
100 g green beans
1 medium potato (i used a bintje, a firm one that doesn't disintegrate when cooked)
1 medium swede
1 red capsicum
1 (400 g) can diced tomatoes
1 (400 g) can chickpeas
1 fuji apple
1 head broccoli
1 cup water
1 bunch fresh coriander (for garnish)
Directions:
1. Needs quiet a big saucepan with a heavy base.
2. All fresh ingredients are chopped.
3. Saute the onion in olive oil, add celery & carrot.
4. Saute for a few minutes then add Balti paste and heat for a minute or two.
5. Stir in the beans, potato, swede, capsicum, tomatoes, chick peas & apple. Add the water as you go to prevent sticking.
6. Finally lay the broccoli on top (or add it later) and cover.
7. Cook over a low heat for 30-40 minutes stirring just enough to prevent sticking on the bottom.
8. Serve with Basmati rice and garnish generously with coriander.
