JB's mention of "mix powder" has piqued my interest. Except when slavishly following someone else's recipe, I make no use of mix powder at all, preferring to use instead a blend of spices that is unique to each dish. I would be interested to learn roughly what fraction of CR0 members habitually use mix powder, and what fraction prefer to use individual spices.
okmate,the balti mix powder is at the Naga link ie for the curry powder i used bassar but any would do to start withthe GM or chef garam at the Naga link has now been revised to:the dish recipe is still in work but currently is here http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php/topic,12276.msg102622.html#msg102622say if things still don't make sense
cloves don't jump out for me as a BIR ingredient or Balti. i have never used them and don't intend to. i do have pimento on my mind but it's quite different.
