I tend to use Indus in Spalding, got a very good rapport with the lads there.

Last time I checked the 'Banquet Night' was £8.90, but an extra £1.50 for a King Prawn main course.

It's :

Any starter (I normally go for either King Prawn Puri or Chicken Tikka).
Any main course (Either King Prawn Roshon (if I'm in a garlic mood and feel like spending the extra £1.50), otherwise Chicken Dupiaza)
Any rice (always egg fried for me!)
Any side (varies, quite often a Mushroom Bhagee, or Aloo Gobi (potato and cauliflower)
Any naan (normally Garlic )

Not bad for £8.90, although the prices vary quite a bit. It's normally either £8.90 for the 'non king prawn main course' version, or it's back to the £10.50 'whether you have king prawn or not'

OK sorry for the delay, but:
Ingrediants:
1 Chicken
9 medium onions
chilli powder to taste
½ cup ful fat yogourt
2 fresh garlic cloves
2 bay leaves
1" cinamon stick
4-8 cardamom pods (i don't like these so leave them out)
10 black peppercorns
10 cloves
some ginger (I use 1tsp powdered, but fresh is better ~3cm)
1tsp turmeric
2 chopped tomatoes
butter
sugar salt and fresh chilli to taste

Cut the chicken
cut 3 of the onions in half, chop 2 coursely, grate the other 4 and press for the juice - discard the pulp
Mix the Chilli powder to a paste with water, add to the yogourt
Fry the 2 chopped onions until brown, remove and drain and set aside
In the same oil (vegetable/ghee) fry the garlic and bay leaves for 1 min, then add the cinnamon and cardamom (if using) then 2 minutes later add the peppercorns cloves and fresh chilli if desired
After 30 seconds, add the ginger (if like me you use powder, make into a paste with water and add with the chilli above) turmeric and chilli paste, once bubbling but not burning, add the chicken and tomatoes, followed by (once browned) the yogourt, 1 tbsp butter and 1 level tspn sugar. Cook for 10-12 mins stir continuously, do not let anything get burnt, add a little water if neccessary.
Now add the onion halves followed by the onion juice and salt to taste. Stir fry for 2-3 mins then bake in !50C for 20-25 mins.
When done add half the fried onions. Add the other half fried onions just before serving.

Good luck!
