About Kurma

Kurma, also known as khurma or qorma, is a rich and flavorful South Asian dish traditionally made with vegetables, meat, or poultry simmered in a creamy, spiced sauce. Often part of Indian or Pakistani cuisine, its base typically includes yogurt, cream, or coconut milk, blended with aromatic spices like cloves, cardamom, and coriander. Nutritionally, kurma can be a source of protein when prepared with chicken, lamb, or legumes. It is rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds from its spices. However, its creamy base and use of ghee or oil can make it calorie-dense, so moderation is key. Vegetable variations can provide fiber and essential vitamins, while versions with coconut milk lend healthy fats. Paired often with rice or flatbread, Kurma offers a hearty, satisfying meal that balances indulgence with nutrients depending on preparation choices.
