Chicken Korma Recipe with TIPS, How To Make Chicken Korma Curry

Chicken Korma recipe is one of the delicious creamy yoghurt-based recipes. This recipe can be prepared in various ways, today I prepared in Andhra style.

It is prepared by adding cashew paste and other nutritional ingredients. It goes well with pulao or jeera rice.

Chicken Korma is usually made with yoghurt and blend of spices to get rich gravy. Whether it is vegetarian or non-vegetarian recipes they have rich aroma and flavour of spices.

In order to get rich gravy, we have added cashew and blend of spices along with onion paste which is fried to a golden brown and then made paste.

While marinating chicken, we have used only fewer ingredients like ginger garlic paste, yoghurt, salt and turmeric powder to make it tender while cooking.

Tips to make Chicken Korma Recipe perfect:

• Marinating chicken will not only make it tender but also helps in absorbing spices.
• Instead of adding dry coconut, you can also add fresh coconut to make a paste.
• To get creamy flavour we add curd/yoghurt, this recipe tastes good when we add sweet yoghurt.
• In our recipe we have fried onions to a golden brown and then made a paste, fried onion paste elevates the flavour of our recipe.
• We can substitute cashew with sesame seeds and make a paste.
