Korma Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a sauce pan. Add cumin seeds, black peppercorns, curry leaves, cinnamon stick, cloves and cardamom pods and cook for about 2 minutes over medium heat until seeds begin to pop.
• Stir in onion and cook for about 10 minutes until golden and soft.
• Add ginger and garlic and cook for about 2 minutes.
• Optionally, stir in ground cashew nuts, chilies, and coriander mixture and cook for 2 minutes.
• Add turmeric and chopped tomatoes. Bring to a boil (there may not be much liquid, add some water or broth if necessary) and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the tomatoes are soft.
• Remove and discard the cinnamon sticks and transfer to a food processor. Process until smooth.
• Return to the pan and add the coconut milk. Simmer for 10 minutes.
• The sauce is now done. You can serve it immediately, spooning over meat or vegetables, or reserve it until later, heating it up before serving.

Steps:

• Place onion, yogurt, mango chutney, garlic, turmeric, chili powder, garam masala, and into the bowl of a food processor. Process into a smooth sauce; it should be about the consistency of thick cream. Add a bit of water or yogurt to thin it if needed. Spread chicken into prepared baking dish, and pour the onion sauce over the chicken.

Steps:

• On a stove top heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook onion until tender. Mix in the ginger, garlic, and 1 tablespoon of the curry powder; continue to cook for 1 minute. In a separate bowl mix potatoes, carrots, jalapeno, cashews, and tomato sauce then add to skillet with salt and 1/2 tablespoon curry powder. Cook for about 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Add the bell peppers, peas, and coconut milk to the skillet. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 10 minutes until the consistency has thickened. Put cilantro on top if desired.
