It is noted for its spicy taste and is notable in South Asian Cuisine. The dish is prepared in a karahi (a type of wok) and can take between 30 and 50 minutes to prepare and cook the dish.[1][2] Ginger, garlic, tomatoes, green chilli and coriander are key to the flavor of the dish.[3] What distinguishes chicken karahi from other curries from the region is that traditionally, it is cooked without onions in the base, and instead uses just tomatoes, ginger and garlic.[4] It is usually served with naan, roti or rice. This dish is common in North Indian, Afghan and Pakistani cuisine.[5]

Chicken Karahi traces its origin back to Pakistan's mountainous Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province (formerly called the North-West Frontier Province).[1][2]
