    The Flavorful Mint Chicken curry Recipe

    Truth be told – the curry and rice thing is probably my favorite type of food. Coriander, Basil, & Mint Leaves are hands down my favorite herbs of all time. If I could have the herb garden of my dreams, I would plant Mint and Basil everywhere!!

    While most of the Pakistani dishes that I cook require coriander as garnish, for this dish, the mint herb paste forms the backbone of the sauce. The combination of fresh coriander and mint makes the dish light and fragrant and gently simmering the chicken in the creamy yogurt ensures that you end up with juicy morsels of meat. 
    Please make sure that you use the tender , young leaves of Mint in this dish – the harder, older leaves will most probably end up making the dish taste bitter.

    This chicken curry bursts with flavors of mint and creamy yogurt and is bound to make you and your guests happy. The spice level of this dish will vary depending on your taste. I used just 2 green chilies and a pinch of cayenne pepper in this curry to make a mild, family-friendly dish. For more heat,  you can add a drizzle of red pepper, some of the seeds of the jalapeño, or some crushed green chilies.

    This is a quick and simple recipe to prepare using ingredients that I always have on hand. Less is more – focus on the true tastes by using fewer ingredients. Flavorful and very easy to prepare, this recipes will make your weeknight dinners stress-free . Do try it!

    Bismillah let’s get started. 
    First, You will need some boneless chicken. I prefer the breast because you get some super fine chunks out of it. But you can make both curries with bone-in pieces or boneless pieces of chicken. Obviously, boneless chicken will cook faster, and is my choice when I want to cook a quick curry. BUT, a GOOD chicken curry uses bone-in chicken pieces because the bones flavor the gravy/sauce.

    In a blender, pour 1/2 cup of yogurt yogurt, 1 small bunch of mint leaves, coriander leaves, green pepper, garlic ginger paste, cumin powder, a pinch of cayenne pepper, salt and squeezed lemon. Blend until well combined and put in the chicken; Cover and let it marinate for 30 minutes to blend flavors.

    You can marinade the chicken for a few hours or even overnight. If you really are in a rush, you can even cook the chicken straight away.

    Heat the oil over medium-low heat in a large nonstick pan.

    Then add the marinated chicken along with the marination. Cook and stir for 10 minutes on medium flame. Then cover and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes or until chicken becomes soft .

    Remove the lid and cook on high flame for just few minutes or until sauce is thickened or all water dries up. ( Make sure to not over cook it will ruined the mint taste).

    Taste and adjust seasoning with more lemon, green chili or pepper, if necessary. This Flaovrful Mint Chicken Curry is delicious with anything. We ate it with boiled rice but it is just as good with really soft naan bread.

    Assalam-o-Alaikum, how are you? Yep, it’s been almost a month since we met. First things first…I had my mid-term exams, so I was lil busy with studying and the other stuff in my life.
    However this gap between us wasn’t planned. I was hoping to catch up with you in between, but it didn’t work out.

    My celebration “yay, exam is over!”

    Finally exams are over I’m finally free to do whatever I want (blogging, eating yummy food, spending time with my plants)😌
    Anyways, the first thing I wanted to do was to just pop in here & say a quick hi to you. I hope you roll into the weekend in a joyous mood! May your day be as fantastic as you are!

    Karahi Butter Chicken (Makhni Karahi)

    To release some exams stress, I made this butter karahi by twisting my Father’s recipe…delicious goodness. Can’t wait to share it with you. He used to make the best food. He was an expert on how to make a really good Butter Chicken. Saying that, I’m not too sure how He would feel about this Karahi Butter Chicken version that I’m currently loving.

    Karahi Butter Chicken (Makhni Karahi)
    Karahi Butter Chicken (Makhni Karahi)

    Name me one thing that doesn’t taste better with a few dollops of cream, a knob or so of butter, a splash of milk, lashings of ghee.

    I’ll bet you’re having a hard time thinking up something. It’s a truth of the culinary world that these things all enhance the eating experience of many foods, sweet and savory foods alike and curries are no exception to this.

    Karahi Butter Chicken (Makhni Karahi)
    Karahi Butter Chicken (Makhni Karahi)

    Take this Karahi Butter Chicken ( Makhni Karahi), for example. I’ve taken the traditional Chicken Karahi dish and made it the way we all love, with the very flavours we all adore and then finished it up with a hearty amount of butter. What does this do? This fills every bite with the very same flavours we desire, along with a moreish, rich bite to it. Every bite tastes like a buttery dream, I tell you. This creamy and velvety gravy will melt in your mouth.

     Recipe Note’s

    My final words before I give you the recipe – my Father was an expert at Karahi’s and he always told me what with chicken Karahis, you must work fast. Have all the ingredients chopped up beforehand if you can, and cook the entire thing on high heat. Stirring constantly is imperative, otherwise you risk burning the curry or having it stick to the pan. Skimp on half the oil or butter if  you must, but I wouldn’t recommend it as a Karahi dish isn’t truly a Karahi dish without its butter or oil.

    I have also posted Restaurant Style Lahori Mutton Karahi and Kebab Karahi which are another easiest & tastiest version of making Karahi at home. Do check it out as well.  It’s finger lickin’ good. You’ll be coming back for more.

    Aslam-o-Alakaum My Lovelies !!

     In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

    Mutton Nihari 

    Nihari is one of most favorite and traditional dishes of every Muslim home. Be it mutton, chicken or beef nihari, it can be relished with any kind of meat. Traditionally nihari made with the bone marrow meat. It’s a deliciously smooth flour based stew with slow cooked mutton and a myriad of spices.  Mutton Nihari takes a long time to cook but is easy to put together.

    mutton-nihari

    There are lot of ready made Nihari spices available in the market. But I would not Never Never recommend. As they are full of artificial colors and preservative agents. Not a healthy approach. 🙁 You can make the Nihari powder at home by following my Nihari Masala Mix and store it in airtight container for many days.

    This is a must try recipe from my Mommy.  We normally make Nihari with small pieces of mutton as we prefer it over the bone-in mutton.

    Note:

    Preferably it must be cook on low flame, but those of you who would rather prefer a faster process can cook it in a pressure cooker though the Nihari taste wont be the same as cooked on a low flame.

    So about this Mutton Nihari recipe. As you can see, there’s no layer of fat floating on top of the nihari, As many of you know, when we go out to eat it, we want the brain, marrow and floating oil on top, not a very healthy option. My mommy tried to make it just a little healthy by adding as little butter as possible without compromising on the flavor. Less fat and believe me, just as good. Or if you do like a little oil on top, when you are ready it dish it out, leave it covered on very low heat for about 5-7 minutes. Voila, the ‘little’ amount of oil will rise to the top!

  • Kachnar Keema Recipe (Kachnar with Minced Meat)

    Jump To Recipe
    Print Recipe

    LET’S CELEBRATE SPRING

    Today marks the start of spring. Traditional rites and festivals of spring revolved around its importance in growing food. Plants start to grow and animals come out of hibernation and begin reproducing. People come out of hibernation too!

    I’m really excited to be back with another Traditional Pakistani recipe (if you didn’t see my Kachnar Gosht and Karela Gosht then I’d really recommend you give those a try too).

    So let’s celebrate spring with another Traditional Pakistani food (Kachnar Keema). 

    Kachnar Keema Recipe
    Photo: Kachnar Keema

    A Lil Bit About Kachnar:

    Kachnar/Orchid is a species of flowering plant in the family Fabaceae, native to southeastern Asia, from southern China west to Pakistan and India.

    Kachnar tree, Bauhinia variegate, is also known as Orchid tree or Butterfly tree because of the way it’s flowers look. This is a very popular ornamental tree in subtropical and tropical climates, grown for its scented flowers and also used as food item in South Asian cuisine.

    Varieties of Kachnar:

    Kachnar has three varieties (red, white and mauve) depending upon the colour of its flowers.

    Kachnar Keema Recipe

    Kachnar Keema

    In Pakistan, its buds are considered a delicacy. They are available for a short season only and are difficult and expensive to buy. Eating Kachnar ( Orchid)is very beneficial for our health as this vegetable is blessed with advantages and it taste is really good when cooked with addition of any mince meat(keema).  

    Kachnar Keema Recipe
    Photo: Kachnar Keema Recipe

    One thing I love about cooking is discovering new flavours that go together, especially when it’s flavours that you wouldn’t necessarily think to put together and today’s Kachnar Keema recipe is one of those creations.

    Kachnar Keema Recipe
    Photo: Kachnar Keema Recipe

    My take on a traditional Pakistani Kachnar Keema with lamb mince, kachnar buds, and served hot chapatai and Raita.

    I’ve been trying to perfect Kachnar Keema for a while, but I’ve always found that it was lacking a little something – it had meatiness from the lamb, bitterness from the kachnar buds and saltiness from the spices but it needed just a hint of creaminess. A few weeks ago on a whim (figuring that mince meat and yogurt go well) I decided to add some yogurt to my Kachnar Keema and the problem was solved – it is delicious.

    Kachnar Keema Recipe
    Photo: Kachnar Keema Recipe

    If you’re reading this and thinking “hmmmm, what would be the taste, or would I like this recipe?” then stop!! Whilst you can taste the flavour of the kachnar, it compliments the mince rather than overpowering it.

    Soooooooo…. convinced? 😉

    Extra-Bonus Tips :

    Before serving sprinkle lemon juice if this is to your taste. (I think it improves the flavour.) It’s good with naan, chapattis, or any other kind of bread, and Zeera Raita (Cumin Yogurt Sauce).
    This has Taste and is a Treat.
