Recipe FAQ

Non-Vegetarian Recipes — common questions

What's the difference between a curry and a karahi?+
Karahi refers to the wok-like pan the dish is cooked in, usually resulting in a thicker, drier gravy, while curry typically has a looser, saucier consistency.
Do I need a tandoor for these full-course recipes?+
The tandoor is used for the initial char on the meat — most of these recipes then finish as a curry on the stovetop. A tandoor oven gives you that authentic smoky base flavor a regular grill can't.
Can I make these dishes less spicy?+
Yes — reduce or omit the chili powder and green chilies in the recipe; the base spice blend (garam masala, cumin, coriander) still carries plenty of flavor without the heat.
How far ahead can I marinate the meat?+
Most recipes benefit from 4 to 8 hours, and whole tandoori chicken specifically improves with an overnight marinate of up to 24 hours.
