Korma Curry Recipe
Ingredients
- 1½ kg chicken pieces
- 6 onions – sliced and fried until golden
- 2 tbsp ginger & garlic paste
- 5 tbsp Spicemaster Korma Masala
- 1 tbsp Kashmiri chilli powder
- 1 tbsp garam masala
- 1½ cups curd (yoghurt)
- 10 cashew nuts + 10 almonds + 2 tbsp coconut powder – lightly toasted in 2 tbsp ghee, then blended with ½ cup water
- ½ cup oil + 2 tbsp ghee
- ¼ cup coriander stems – chopped
- ¼ cup fresh coriander – chopped
- 4 green chillies
- 2-inch ginger – cut into julienne
- Salt to taste
Preparation
- Blend two-thirds of the fried onions with the toasted nut and coconut mixture to form a smooth paste. Hand-crush the remaining onions.
- In a separate bowl, mix Spicemaster Korma Masala, Kashmiri chilli powder, and garam masala with 1 cup water to form a masala blend. Set aside.
Method
- Cook the Base: Heat oil and ghee in a pan. Add chicken pieces, curd, prepared masala blend, ginger & garlic paste, green chillies, coriander stems, ginger julienne, and salt.
- Simmer the Curry: Slow-cook over medium to low heat, allowing the flavours to develop and the chicken to cook about 80%.
- Add the Richness: Stir in the onion and nut mixture along with the crushed onions. Mix gently until well blended and the gravy thickens.
- Serve & Garnish: Garnish with ginger julienne and fresh coriander. Serve hot with naan, roti, or basmati rice.
