I’m confident that you’ll love this chicken karahi. I can pretty much guarantee that this dish is restaurant-worthy. How? Well… I may or may not have thought that it’d be a good idea to order chicken karahi from four different Indian restaurants near me… And then I may or may not have moved the curries into four identical white bowls, added a fifth bowl with my homemade version, and then insisted that my husband taste each one and tell me which was best. I mean, no pressure husband.l 😂 You can see how it went and watch him (really) struggle with this “kadai chicken challenge” lol. You can skip to the end if you want (I wasn’t sure I’d be sharing this iPhone video, so I’m sorry for the quality!). I thought it’d be a fun experiment! Also, my 3-year-old and 1-year-old were out of town visiting their grandparents and after spending the past four months at home with them glued to me nearly 24-7, I had no idea what else to do with my newfound free time (omg what am I going to do when they go off to college?). This seemed like a good idea 🤷🏽♀️. All five curries were good, and funnily enough, all a bit different from each other. Just goes to show, there’s no one “right” way to make a dish. But I do think there are a few things about my recipe that make it stand out…
