Chicken Karahi Food

PAKISTANI CHICKEN KARAHI

Steps:

• Heat a large, heavy-bottomed pan over high heat, and add the ghee and oil. Once hot, add the onions and sauté for 5-6 minutes, or until lightly golden. Add garlic, ginger, and whole green chili pepper and sauté for about a minute.
• Add the chicken and ½ tsp salt and sauté for 5 minutes, or until the color of the chicken changes and it has stopped releasing water. Add the tomatoes, coriander, cumin, red chili pepper, and remaining salt and sauté for another minute.
• Lower the heat to medium, cover, and allow the chicken cook for 20 minutes, stirring once in between.
• Uncover and raise the heat to high. Sauté for 10 minutes to finish cooking the chicken and reduce excess liquid.* You will notice the chicken taking on a glossy appearance as the ghee/oil starts to separate.
• Lower the heat to medium, add in the whisked yogurt, and gently sauté for 2-3 minutes. Taste and add more salt, if needed. (I usually need another 1/8 tsp.) Add freshly ground black peppercorns and garam masala, and stir to combine. Top with green chili peppers, julienned ginger, and cilantro. Serve hot with roti, naan, bread, or rice.

KARAHI CHICKEN CURRY

Steps:

• Combine all the spice mix ingredients. Set aside.
• Add the chicken, curry powder and salt to a small pot. Cover with chicken stock and bring to a simmer.
• Cook until the chicken is just done. This takes about 10-12 minutes.
• Drain the chicken and set aside.
• Be ready. Have your curry base simmering on the stove. Make your spice mix. Chop all the ingredients and have them at the ready. This is going to go very fast. You don't have time to mess around.
• Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Add the oil.
• When the oil starts to shimmer add the onion and green chilies. Cook, stirring constantly, until the onions just start to brown on the edges. This takes 2-3 minutes.
• Add the garlic ginger paste and cook until it stops sputtering, about 1 minute.
• Lower the heat to medium low. Add the spice mix. Cook, stirring constantly, for about 30-45 seconds. You want to bloom the spices in the oil. You don't want to burn it. If you burn the spices, start again. There's no fixing it.
• Add the diluted tomato paste. Stir to combine and cook for about a minute.
• Turn the heat up to medium high. Add 3 oz of the curry base. Stir to combine and cook until it it starts to crater. Little holes will appear. See the guide to Indian curries to understand what this means if you aren't sure.
• Add another 6 oz of curry base. Stir to combine and cook until it craters.
• Now add the remaining curry base. Cook until it craters and reduce the heat to low. Add the chicken stir to mix. Simmer for about 3 minutes.
• Add the fresh chopped tomatoes, cilantro and lemon juice and cook for another 2 minutes or so. If the curry gets too dry add a bit more curry base.
• Add the cream. Stir to combine. Serve. Enjoy!

PAKISTANI CHICKEN KARAHI

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large pot or karahi over high heat. Add chicken pieces and cook until starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Add water, cumin, salt, ginger and garlic paste, red chile powder, and turmeric; cook and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Stir tomatoes and green chile peppers into the pot. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until chicken pieces are no longer pink at the bone, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Sprinkle cilantro leaves over the chicken and cook until the leaves look slightly wilted, about 30 seconds.

KARAHI CHICKEN

Steps:

• For the karahi curry sauce: heat the oil in a pan, add the onions, garlic and chillies and fry over a medium heat for approximately 10 minutes or until the onions are caramelised.
• Add the cumin, coriander, turmeric, salt and garam masala and stir. Mix in the ginger and pureed tomatoes and cook for 1 minute, stirring. Add the water and cook for about 5 minutes or until the oil surfaces. Remove from the heat and keep warm.
• For the chicken: heat the oil in a wok or heavy-based frying pan and add the chicken. Stir-fry over a medium heat for 8-10 minutes or until the chicken is golden brown all over. Stir in the karahi curry sauce and simmer for 2-3 minutes. Garnish with cilantro leaves.

CHICKEN KARAHI

Steps:

• Wash and dry chicken pieces properly. Put the chicken pieces in a medium sized saucepan. Add salt to taste, green chilies, peppercorns, and water and place on stove on high heat. Once the water starts to boil, reduce heat to low and cook chicken until tender and the liquid has evaporated. If the chicken sticks and is not cooked add a little more water.
• While the above is being done, in a separate "karahi", which is an Indian/ Pakistani Wok, (or you can use a Chinese wok also) add the olive oil, tomatoes, some salt and red chili powder (around one teaspoon for medium hot or two teaspoons for hot). Cook on medium heat until the tomatoes are tender and reduced to a sauce like consistency. Add the cooked chicken pieces to the sauce. Reduce heat to very low so that the sauce absorbs and coats the chicken pieces. Add the julienned ginger and green chilies to the chicken. Simmer for around five minutes.
• Before serving sprinkle on chopped cilantro and serve in the Karahi, with hot pita bread or any available Indian bread from the market.
• The dish is best eaten fresh off the stove with "Dal" as an accompaniment.
