A delicious stir-fried curry with complex spices...

Karahi curry is named after the steep-sided, wok-like pot in which this dish would traditionally be cooked. ‘Karahi’ is the Hindi name for the pot but they’re also known as a kadai, korai or kadhi and are used for shallow or deep frying or to slow cook curries throughout India, Pakistan and Bangladesh.
Here we’re slow cooking onions and peppers, then adding marinated chicken (or paneer) which together create a deliciously sweet and spicy dish. On the side we’ve got fluffy naans, a gently spiced vegetable subji curry, fiery garlic chilli chutney and cooling raita to round the meal off.

Why cook one feast when you can have two! This was a team effort with 4 of us cooking, we each had our own cooking station and a glass of vino! Such a fun thing to do and the result was simply delicious!

Now that sounds like our kind of night! We're so pleased to hear that you had lots of fun putting these recipes together and loved the end result, too - it certainly looks like a fantastic feast!

5/5

Excellent recipe ideas that are challenging to prepare (in a good way) and produce gorgeous results.

5/5

With chicken thighs, oh yes!
