    Your recipe looks awesome! Exactly what I was looking for. The recipe asks for 3 tomatoes. What size of tomatoes are you using? Can you tell us what the approximate weight of tomatoes would be(in lbs, kgs, or grams)? I am a new cook and this will really help. Thank you!

      Hi !
      Thank u !
      3 medium tomatoes are fine. You can just eyeball it. it wont make any difference even if you put in the large ones, you would just have more gravy !
      unlike baking, cooking is really forgiving ! :)

    I tried this recipe and it turned out super delicious! It reminded of chicken karahi we ate at restaurants in Pakistan.
    I did make some minor changes to the recipe. I put 1 tsp of kasuri methi(instead of 1/2 tsp), 1/2 cup of yogurt(instead of 1 cup), 1/2 tsp of crushed red chillies with half teaspoon of red chilli powder and 2 thai green chillies(cut in half). It was still spicy enough for my taste since I kept the gravy thick. I made it for a party as well and everyone raved about it. Thanks so much for posting it. I have tried your chapli kabab recipe(a hit), chicken handi(different version as you call it ) and the chicken curry recipe you recently posted. They all turned out great. Please post more chicken curry recipes. Thank you.
