Why Chicken Handi Is My Favorite?

Honestly speaking I want to eat this chicken boneless handi recipe in my whole life, oh wow just amazing. Chicken Handi Recipe dish is a very traditional restaurant style chicken handi recipe that is made in a special vessel called a handi.

Handi is a kind of cooking pan that was used in Indian or Pakistani cooking with a shallow depth and a wide bottom in the olden days which was made of clay.

However these days it is not so common to cook in such pots or to even find it. So don’t worry, if you don’t have handi then you can make this tempting dish in the karahi that you have at home or you can use standard pot for making this chicken curry.

What Is Chicken Handi?

Actually, handi means clay pot. Traditionally, this chicken handi curry is made in a terracotta pot which shifts its unique flavor to a chicken handi dish.

The good thing is about chicken handi, which is milder than south Asian curries, but always rich in flavor. In this process, we cooked chicken in a creamy base of fresh cream and yogurt.

In most Indian and Pakistani restaurants, majorly boneless chicken used for this chicken handi curry. But if you want bone-in chicken then you can also use that one.

Can We Make Chicken Handi Without Cream?

Yes, you can make chicken handi without cream. If you are not a huge fan of cream and don’t want to add it to your gravy dish. Just skip the black pepper and green chilies option and make your chicken handi recipe without cream.

Can We Store Chicken Handi?

Yes, you can store your chicken handi curry in the fridge. Just add your chicken curry to an airtight container and keep it in the fridge and this lasts up to a week.

Difference Between Chicken Karahi And Chicken Handi:

Now there is not a very big difference between them. Like In chicken karahi, we use tomato-based masala and it is traditionally prepared in karahi mean (wok).

whereas in chicken handi we use tomatoes, yogurt, cream, for the smooth, rich base. And chicken handi traditionally prepared in a handi(clay pot). The other difference is, chicken karahi is more spicer than chicken handi.
