Mirs Chicken Karahi Recipes

• Turn up the heat and further cook for another 1 minute then put in the chicken. It is very crucial that spices are mixed within the pan at this point to ensure that the chicken cooks with texture and flavor. Add water after stirring the chicken into the spices.
• Turn down the heat slightly and stir in the garam masala and fenugreek and cook for a further 5 minutes, also adding in the bell pepper stirring now and again. Serve sprinkled with green coriander.

• P.S: You can also add 1 tbsp of Achar Gosht Masala available at the Asian grocery stores.

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.

Steps:

• Fry sliced onions in oil till light brown.Add chicken pieces and stir them in oil for 3 minutes. Add red chilli powder, salt and turmeric powder and let the chicken cook with 4 cups water till nearly done. Lastly add the green chillies and cook for more 5 to 6 minutes. Serve hot with plain boiled rice.

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.

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.
