Chicken Korma image

Adapted from Madhur Jaffrey's recipe. I add a touch of honey and swap sour cream for yogurt because I always have it on hand. I also reduced the cayenne. This is so excellent over quality basmati rice with simple peas and naan.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my chicken korma turned out really oily. I think I might have added too much ghee.

This recipe is a bit bland for my taste, but it's a good option for people who don't like spicy food.

I'm not a big fan of chicken korma, but I thought this recipe was pretty good. The sauce was flavorful and the chicken was tender.

This recipe is a good starting point, but it needs some tweaking. I added more spices and yogurt to the sauce, and it turned out much better.

This recipe is okay, but it's not the best chicken korma I've ever had.

This recipe is missing some key ingredients. It doesn't have any ginger or garlic, which are essential for a good korma.

I've tried this recipe twice, and both times the chicken was dry. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

This recipe is way too complicated. I'm not a professional chef, and I don't have time to spend hours in the kitchen.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce didn't turn out creamy. It was more like a thin gravy.

This recipe is a bit spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. Next time, I'll use less chili powder.

I've made this recipe several times, and it always turns out great. The yogurt marinade makes the chicken so tender, and the spices give it a wonderful flavor.

This chicken korma recipe is a keeper! The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the chicken was tender and juicy. I served it over basmati rice, and it was a hit with my family.
