Karahi Chicken


Chicken is brought alive with this simple tomato-based spicy sauce that is added last-minute for a quick-to-cook curry. I love this from my local takeaway.

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.
