A dish made luscious with a creamy cashew base, perfumed with expensive spices and with a hint of sweetness from caramelised onions, korma is all kinds of delicious. And indulgent to the core. Can you imagine an Indian wedding without this intensely flavourful curry? There are very few things that can top the joy of mopping up korma curry with butter naan, or relishing it with steamed rice. That joy gets somewhat multiplied when a non-vegetarian korma dish is laid out in front of you. Preparing a good korma takes a wee bit of time, effort and patience, but that’s not to say you can’t make it at home.
