Nolly’s Punjabi Chicken Karahi

You have to give credit where credit is due. Nolly, my wonderful grandmother from Punjab, is the sole reason I love South Asian food. From a young age, she exposed me to a whole plethora of different spices and aromatics, (while my English side favoured meat and veg), and it sparked my fascination for different cuisines and cultures. I don’t think I would have ever made my page without that exposure, and I don’t think Gather Round would exist either. This is a curry Nolly used to cook for us when we were younger. Like a lot of Punjabi recipes, it’s stripped back. Simple, but by no means inferior. This is a really beautiful, quick curry that’s just as satisfying as the usual suspects.
