Frequently Asked Questions

What is karahi and how is it different from curry? Karahi refers to both the cooking vessel (a deep, round-bottomed wok) and the dish prepared in it. Karahi preparations are typically cooked on high heat, dry-fried, and saucy rather than watery — giving them a more concentrated, intense flavor than standard curry.

Can I make karahi without a karahi wok? Yes — a regular deep skillet or wide saucepan works for making karahi at home. A cast-iron or carbon steel pan approximates the high-heat, fast-cooking style of traditional karahi best.

Is Shan Karahi Masala suitable for vegetarian preparations? Yes — Shan Karahi works excellently with paneer, tofu, mushrooms, and mixed vegetables for a vegetarian karahi with authentic Pakistani-restaurant style flavor.
