Britain's Favourite Curry Style, in a Catering Tub

Balti is one of Britain's most beloved curry styles — fast-cooked, intensely aromatic, and served sizzling in the pan it was cooked in. Patak's Balti Curry Paste captures that authentic Birmingham balti house flavour in a convenient paste that delivers consistent, restaurant-quality results every time.
This 2.3kg catering tub is the same format used by Indian restaurants, takeaways, and caterers across the UK. Medium heat, deeply fragrant, and incredibly versatile — it works beautifully with chicken, lamb, prawns, paneer, and mixed vegetables. Suitable for vegans. Gluten-free. No artificial colours, no added MSG, no preservatives.

Why the 2.3kg Catering Tub?

  • Medium heat — bold, aromatic Balti flavour that suits the whole family
  • Ideal for: Chicken, lamb, prawns, paneer, and mixed veg
  • Trusted by takeaways — the same catering-format paste used in professional kitchens
  • Suitable for vegans and gluten-free
  • No artificial colours, no added MSG, no preservatives
  • Outstanding bulk value — far more economical than buying multiple small jars

How to Use

Classic Balti: Heat oil in a wok or balti dish over high heat. Fry 2–3 tablespoons of paste for 1–2 minutes until fragrant. Add diced chicken, lamb, or vegetables and stir well to coat. Add a splash of water or stock and cook over high heat, stirring frequently, for 15–20 minutes until cooked through. Serve directly in the pan with naan bread — the traditional way.
With prawns: Add raw king prawns in the final 5 minutes of cooking to keep them tender and juicy.
With paneer: Cube and lightly fry paneer before adding to the paste for a satisfying vegetarian balti.
Meal prep: The paste keeps well in the fridge after opening (up to 6 weeks). Make a large batch and portion into containers for quick weeknight meals.

Also available: Patak's Tikka, Madras, Tandoori, Kashmiri and mixed paste range — see our full Patak's collection.
