Morrisons launches Chicken Balti Pie and Saag Paneer Roll products
Morrisons has launched two new products to celebrate its home city of Bradford during the UK City of Culture year. The supermarket chain, in partnership with Myton Food Group, has introduced a Chicken Balti Pie and Saag Paneer Roll. The limited-edition products have been available since Monday (April 21), at a starting price of £1 for the Saag Paneer Roll and £2.10 for the Chicken Balti Pie. Fred Stevens, pie shop buyer at Morrisons, said: "Bradford has been our home for over 125 years and we have always been a proud supporter of the local community. "Our city has had a diverse range of people and cultures throughout history and its food cuisine has been at the forefront of bringing people together. "As a 'Major Partner' of the 2025 UK City of Culture, we wanted to shine a spotlight on Bradford and the great food and flavours that we produce here." Morrisons, which started as a Bradford market stall in 1899, now has nearly 500 stores across the UK. The new products are part of a growing menu of Bradford-inspired food and drink items created to mark 2025. Earlier this year, Seabrooks Crisps launched three special Bradford-inspired flavours in Morrisons stores, and Saltaire Brewery created a limited edition 'Be Bold' Bradford beer. Dan Bates, executive director at Bradford 2025 UK City of Culture, said: "You can't beat the winning combination of Bradford's world-renowned curry heritage baked into the perfect pie – which has been a beloved part of the North's culinary landscape for generations. "This is a great illustration of the type of innovation that is happening across the district as the corporate and cultural sectors come together to create something truly special. "Morrisons is a brilliant example of a home-grown company that has become a nationwide brand, but its roots have remained proudly here in the city. "Food is very much part of our Year of Culture celebrations, so it's wonderful that Morrisons customers across the UK can now pick up a little slice of Bradford culture to enjoy wherever they are." Taking place across the district throughout 2025, Bradford's UK City of Culture programme aims to celebrate contemporary culture and showcase the rich history and heritage of the area. Events, performances, and activities will spread from the city to the towns, villages, and green spaces across the district, through until December.
