Tips:

  • Use high-quality chicken: The better the chicken, the better the korma. Look for free-range, organic chicken if possible.
  • Marinate the chicken overnight: This will help the chicken absorb the flavors of the spices.
  • Use a good quality yogurt: The yogurt should be thick and creamy. Avoid using low-fat or non-fat yogurt, as it will not produce the same rich flavor.
  • Toast the spices before using them: This will bring out their flavor and aroma.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot: This will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the korma from burning.
  • Simmer the korma for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to develop and meld together.
  • Serve the korma with rice or naan: This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.
