INDIAN TAKEAWAY CHICKEN KORMA CURRY



Indian Takeaway Chicken Korma Curry image

This recipe is for a British Indian Restaurant standard Chicken Korma. It's rich, sweet, creamy and full of flavour! There are two parts to this recipe: first, the curry gravy base and second, the sauce that gives it that magic chicken korma taste. The curry base is very versatile and can be used as a base for many different takeaway quality curries. The curry base part of the recipe actually makes 3 x 225ml of curry base and can be stored in three separate containers and put in the fridge or freezer for another time or another curry!
