Recipe Chicken Korma
I do not have a food processor for this recipe? Help!!!!?
I have a recipe for chicken Korma that I absolutely love!
But it says I need a food processor to make the Korma sauce! I only have a juicer/soup maker. I have made soup in it before and it can be quite thick!
Is it possible to make the sauce in this?
A mortar and pestle will be better than a food processor !
English Chicken Korma?
Anyone have a good recipe that mimics English Korma that we can make here in Canada, everything around here just doesn’t compare.
Thnx for the recipe caroline, unfortunately that is traditional korma. In England they altered the recipe years and years ago to save money and use coconut in their recipes, thats why its such a different flavor, but none of the restaurants out west here make it like that, sad lol
I’m craving England Tikka Masala too, thats different everywhere too, ugh!
I didn’t realize I needed to be so literal, its called English Chicken Korma because it was altered in England to suit budgets when ordering products to make it eons ago. Anywhere you go around the world most people realize when you order a Korma or Masala that it originated in India but every area makes it differently, even every restaurant in the same area makes it differently. Of course its still Indian food, my god.
