A deep, round-bottomed pan with two handles used in South Asian cooking, or a dish cooked in it.
The karahi resembles a wok, with curved sides that let a cook fry and stir over high heat. It is traditionally made of iron or other metal and is common in Indian and Pakistani kitchens, where it is used for curries and frying.
