Today I had made Karahi Chicken using Shaan’s Karahi Ghost Spice Masala, Didn’t follow instructions as laid out on the packet but got an idea of what to do. This is how I prepared it.
Ingredients:
400g of chicken pieces
3 medium sized Tomatoes
100ml Sunflower Oil
2tbls of Finely chopped Garlic
1tbls of ginger garlic Paste
1tbls of Red Chilli Powder
1/2 Packet of Shan Karahi Masala
Some Green Chilies
Preparations: Wash and clean the chiken and add it to 3/4 cup of water and put on boil, add Ginger Garlic Paste and Chopped Garlic and let the meat turn white and tender, then add 1/2 packet of Shan Spices and cook on medium high for 10 mins.. or till most of the water is evaported. While the chiekn is been cooked in the spices in a seperate pan pour some oil and add tomates cook till tomatoes are done. After that transfer the chicken and the spices into the pan (karahi) of tomatoes and cook on medium for 15mins add red chilli powder to give the redish color and some taste. When done sprikle green peper into the Karahi and garnish it with some Coriander… I didn’t garnish as didn’t have coriander 
As always this is how it looked as for the taste, book a ticket to Durban
