Nawabi korma

Recipe By - Naaima Farooqui

This is another recipe I have worked hard on researching. I have tried this recipe with chicken and meat and both came out phenomenal I had made chicken one on my outside stove with logs and coal and mutton one on the regular stove top. If u want u can put a piece of coal on the stove but discard later and do not give the coal dum in the dish.

Plz follow it step by step and you will give me duas IA

If u don’t find yellow pepper near the stores where u live u can omit it.

In asli ghee add 1 small onion, 1 bay leaf few cloves, 1 tsp char maghaz (melon seeds), 1 tsp coconut powder, and green Cardmom and 8 makhanay(fox nuts) fry till the onions are golden. Take it out make a paste. Set aside.

Take 1 cup yogurt and add green Cardmom powder, g.g paste, salt, turmeric, red chili powder, few drops kewra, corriander powder and mix and put in the oil stir, add few more whole cloves and yellow pepper and 2lb meat or chicken and keep stirring.

Take another small onion and blend it with little water, 1 more bay leaf and few green cardmoms and add in this meat. Now add enough water so the meat can get tender. Now crush 2 black Cardmom, few black pepper, 1tsp cumin seeds, few more cloves and add in the meat and cook till the oil separates.

At this stage u can add little more water if u want more gravy. Now add the blended brown onions and masalas u blended in the beginning.

Cook little more and in the end add 1/4 tsp of nutmeg powder, 1/4 tsp of mace powder and 1/3 tsp of cinnamon powder and 1/2 cup milk and leave it on slow cook (dum) for 10 mins and then it’s ready to eat.

Pair it with sheermal or homemade naans and this would be one of the best korma u have ever tried IA.
