Punjabi Chicken Karahi
A Punjabi Chicken Karahi is an onion and tomato based dish with plenty of garlic and ginger added as well.
This Punjabi recipe carefully blends spices for a subtle yet tasty dish. Our recipe uses a base curry sauce but if you don’t have one to hand you could use more chopped tomatoes or a little water but that will reduce the depth of flavour.
Lamb Karahi (Korai / Karai)
This lamb karahi recipe (or karai) is a classic Indian curry with tender lamb pieces coated in a beautifully spiced curry sauce. This is a relatively “dry” curry so your sauce should be nice and thick.
It is relatively easy to cook and if you don’t have a base curry sauce available you can use chopped tomatoes.
