  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   3       T            Vegetable oil
   4                    Onions, chopped
                        Small piece of ginger,
                        Peeled and grated
   1                    Large garlic clove, crushed
   1                    Tomato, chopped
   1       T            Paprika
     1/2   t            Turmeric
     1/2   t            Cumin (ground)
     1/2   t            Ground coriander
   1       t            Chili powder
                        Fresh chopped coriander
                        (a handful)
                        Salt to taste

  Heat the oil in a large saucepan over moderate heat.  Fry the onions,
ginger and garlic until the onions are translucent.  Add the tomato and
stir-fry, breaking it up with the spoon.  Pour in 300 ml / 1/2 UK pint
water, and stir in the other ingredients.  Bring to the boil.  Lower heat,
cover and simmer for 30 minutes.  Remove from heat and allow to cool.   Pour
into a blender or food processor and liquidize.
  (Note:  this is only one formula of thousands possible.  There's no more
a single recipe for Balti sauce than there's a single recipe for chili.
Some cooks like more garlic, some more chili powder;  some use fresh
chilies as well:  some add yogurt, coconut, cream...you name it.)
