Best 4 Turkey Spinach Korma Recipes

MUSHROOM AND SPINACH KORMA

Steps:

• Cook the rice as the label directs. Meanwhile, combine the chopped onion, ginger, tomato, cumin, coriander, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 cup water in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a wide saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onion and cook, stirring, until golden, about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, 3 more minutes. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt. Transfer the vegetables to a plate. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in the same pan; add the tomato mixture and cook, stirring, until very thick, about 6 minutes. Return the mushroom mixture to the pan. Add 1 1/2 cups water, bring to a simmer and cook until the mushrooms are soft, about 4 minutes. Stir in the spinach and chickpeas and cook 2 more minutes. Stir in the coconut milk, season with salt and top with cilantro. Serve with the rice.

EASY CHICKEN KORMA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 2-quart baking dish.
• Heat oil and butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook onions in oil until soft.
• 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.
• Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. Sprinkle sliced almonds over the top, and serve.

TURKEY MEATBALL KORMA

Steps:

• Make the meatballs: mix the mince with 1 tsp curry paste and seasoning. Shape into walnut-size meatballs. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan. Fry the meatballs for 5 mins, turning until they are browned all over.
• Heat the remaining curry paste in a saucepan. Add the onion and fry over a low heat for about 5 mins, until soft - be careful not to burn the paste (add a splash of water if you need to).
• Pour in the stock and coconut milk, and bring to the boil. Turn the heat down to low and add the meatballs. Cook for 10 mins, or until the turkey is cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly. Add the sugar snaps and tomatoes, and cook for another 2 mins. Scatter with the almonds and coriander, if you have any, and serve with rice.

NAVRATAN KORMA

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place mixed nuts in the skillet, cook and stir until golden brown, and set aside. Stir onion into the skillet, and cook until tender. Mix in garlic paste and ginger paste, and cook 1 minute. Stir in tomato sauce, cayenne pepper, turmeric, coriander, and garam masala. Pour in water, and mix in raisins, carrots, green bell pepper, beans, peas, and potatoes. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer 20 minutes, until potatoes are tender.
• Heat remaining oil in a separate skillet over medium-high heat, and cook the paneer on both sides, until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Place in a bowl with enough hot water to cover for about 2 minutes to soften, then stir into the skillet with the vegetables.
• Stir milk and cream into the skillet with the vegetables and paneer. Bring to a boil, and continue cooking 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt to taste.
