What Is Chicken Korma
From as far back as I can remember, my love for Indian recipes, especially their unique curries, has been unwavering. Every trip to the local Indian grocery store conjures memories of the vibrant “spice trips” my mom and I used to embark on in Little India, Penang. One of the recipes I absolutely love as a child was Chicken Korma, a creamy and mildly spiced Indian dish made with tender chicken in a rich yogurt curry sauce. Korma, also spelled as Khurma or Kurma, is flavored with a blend of aromatic spices such as cardamom, cinnamon, and cloves. Unlike Indian chicken curry, Chicken Korma is distinguished from other curries by its rich gravy and smooth texture, mainly because of its heavy incorporation of yogurt as part of its main ingredients. It can vary in flavor and consistency depending on the recipe and regional variations. It is often served with basmati rice, naan, or other Indian flat breads for a complete meal experience. You may also try these amazing Indian recipes: soft and pillowy naan, chicken tikka masala, butter chicken, chicken vindaloo, and Indian chicken curry next. Happy cooking!
