Korma Recipe Instructions

1. Marinate the cubed meat in yogurt, ginger paste, garlic paste, green chili paste, and a pinch of salt for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, in the refrigerator.

2. In a large, heavy-bottomed pan, heat the ghee over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onions and sauté until golden brown.

3. Add the marinated meat to the pan and cook until it's sealed and slightly browned.

4. Stir in the tomato puree and cook until the oil starts to separate from the masala.

5. Add the ground cashew nut paste, almond paste, and poppy seed paste to the pan, stirring continuously to incorporate them into the gravy.

6. Sprinkle in the ground coriander, cumin, turmeric, red chili powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure all the spices are evenly distributed.

7. Cover the pan and let the meat simmer on low heat until it's tender and cooked through, stirring occasionally. Add water if needed to maintain the desired consistency of the gravy.

8. Once the meat is cooked, sprinkle garam masala powder over the korma and give it a final stir.

9. Garnish the korma with fresh coriander leaves and saffron-infused milk for an extra touch of luxury and aroma.

10. Serve the korma hot with steamed basmati rice, naan bread, or roti for a truly indulgent dining experience.
