Instructions
- Add a generous amount of oil to a pan and heat it over medium heat.
- Once the oil is hot, add the karela slices and fry them until they turn a light brown, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the fried karela from the oil and set aside.
- In the same pan with a bit of remaining oil, add the chopped onions. Cook the onions for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown.
- Add the ginger and garlic paste to the pan with the onions. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, until the raw smell disappears and the paste is fragrant.
- Add the chicken pieces to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 6-8 minutes or until the chicken changes colour and is partially cooked through.
- Stir in your spices and mix well with the chicken.
- Add the chopped green chillies and tomatoes to the pan. Cook for an additional 6-8 minutes, or until the tomatoes are softened and well blended with the other ingredients.
- Add the fried karela back into the pan. Mix thoroughly to combine everything. Cover the pan and reduce the heat to low. Cook for a further 15 minutes, allowing the flavours to meld and the chicken to cook fully.
- Once done, remove from heat and serve your chicken karela hot. Enjoy!
