Chicken Korma with Vegetables

Jump to Recipe

Chicken korma was the first Indian curry that I ever ate. I was a child at the time so understandably; my parents went for this creamy and mildly spiced dish. Traditionally thickened at the end with ground almonds or cashews and yoghurt, I’ve gone with chickpeas and milk to get that creamy finish.

Chicken Korma with Vegetables

Use the Thermomix to make this classic curry. Instead of using nuts, chickpeas and milk are blended together to finish up the sauce.
