The chicken handi recipe just goes to show, you’ve got to try Hasan’s when in Leeds!
I met Hasan Chaudhry at last year’s World Curry Festival in Bradford. It was the first time for both of us to be on stage doing cooking demonstrations. Hasan also did a pop up restaurant which I decided I had to try.
He handed me a freshly made naan with a lamb kebab and also a fish pakora. I absolutely loved it. In fact I remember texting my wife to tell her how nice it was.
Someday I hope to talk him into giving me those recipes.
So I was pleasantly surprised when out of the blue I received an email from Hasan with the following recipe for chicken handi. I made the recipe tonight and just had to sit down and tell you all about it.
This recipe shows that all those recommendations I’ve received by loyal Hasan’s Restaurant fans over the years were well justified. This recipe is easy to make and the ingredients work so nicely together. Chicken handi is one of the most popular curries at Hasan’s. Now you can make it yourself at home.
Next time I’m in Leeds I will be going to Hasan’s Restaurant. Maybe I’ll see you there.

Thank you so much Hasan! This chicken handi was absolutely amazing!
Hi mate,done most of your dishes to date and all superb and easy to do.Going to give this one a whirl on Saturday.Just one thing I followed Hasan’s Restaurant link and it says in the menu that the chicken is marinated and also has yogurt in the dish but you do not have this in your ingredients.Did you try it with or without these .Whatever with or without guess its still a great dish
Ok,just cooked this one and it was superb.Did add 1/2 cup of yogurt ,tsp cumin and bit extra butter .Best dish to date
Great to hear Kev. Thanks for trying the recipe and for your ideas.

And yogurt is healthy.
That looks great (and no doubt tastes great too). I will try it, but will have to do something about all that oil and butter (boring I know).
Am I better adding the spices before the meat, to get them to release their flavour more? So good though!
Hi Jason
Yes! I need to work on this recipe. A bit old now. 🙂
