Garlic Chilli Chicken Tikka Balti (BIR) 🍛

This Garlic Chilli Chicken Balti is a seriously hot and spicy, fantastically flavoured curry made with freshly diced garlic, fresh ginger, fresh chillies and sliced onions. If you like your Madras and Vindaloo then this is the curry for you. Reduce the heat by leaving out the chilli pickle and by adding less or de-seeding the chillies. You can even add a little sugar if required.
