Food for Mood | Season 8 | Chicken karahi

I often cook Chicken Karahi when I am feeling down or I need an emotion boost. The smell, delectable taste, and spice came in at the right places to boost my spirit and invigorate me.

1/2 Kg chicken (with bones or without bones)

3-4 tomatoes (whole, chopped or blended)

1tbls ginger-garlic paste

2 3 green chiley (slit)

optional, to be extra rich, use 1/2 cup yogurt

1 tsp pepper (black)

1 tsp of smashed coriander seeds

To taste salt

1. Warm oil or ghee in a wok (karahi) on medium heat.

1. Add ginger-garlic paste and saute a minute and until aromatic.

1. Add chicken and fry until it changes color to white (56 minutes).

1. Add tomatoes which are either blended or chopped, salt and red chili powder. Cook in medium heat until the oil separates and tomatoes degrade.

1. Add black pepper and yogurt (in case you use it), crushed coriander seeds. Stir well.

1. Put an addition of green chilies and allow the chicken to simmer till getting soft and the masala thickens.

1. Topped with fresh coriander and hot serve with naan or roti.

On the event that I am not at home with the ingredients:

I will order it either to a local desi restaurant in which I am comfortable with.

Or I will replace with what we have-like only tomatoes and black pepper to make it simpler, or even go to the extent of using egg karahi when we have no chicken available.

Absolutely! The taste of Chicken Karahi is perfectly combination of spice, comfort and smell to fill you with joy. It is not any ordinary meal, it tastes like it is therapy in a bowl. I would strongly advise it to every person who enjoys bold tastes and requires fast emotional boost.
