About Korma

Korma is a creamy, mildly spiced dish originating from Indian and South Asian cuisine. It typically features meat, such as chicken or lamb, or vegetables, simmered in a rich sauce made from yogurt, cream, nuts like almonds or cashews, and a blend of aromatic spices including turmeric, cumin, and cardamom. Its luxurious flavor comes from the slow cooking process that allows the spices and ingredients to meld together. Korma is notable for being high in protein when made with meat but can also be rich in calories and fats due to the cream and nut-based sauce. Vegetarian versions using paneer or mixed vegetables offer a lighter alternative. Pairing it with whole-grain options like brown rice or whole-wheat naan can improve its nutritional balance. While delicious, moderation is key when enjoying korma, especially given its higher fat content in traditional recipes.
