With a very few ingredients, a delicious chicken korma can be prepared…
Wohooo, this is my 600th recipe post! Giving myself a big pat on my shoulder 🙂
Enjoying the long weekend by doing nothing. I mean it, absolutely nothing I am doing and I feel very special. Well, my man has been down with pollen allergy the moment Spring has sprung. When everyone looks at the weather forecast, my man has been looking at the pollencast and it seems that the pollen is at its peak this year. Poor him, have been sneezing and wheezing even after taking the medication. He feels good relief when he sips chukku kappi, I am literally tired of making chukku kappi these days.
I made this chicken korma a couple of days ago, and served it with Appam. This time when I made the chicken korma, I caramelized the onions a lil more and added the other ingredients into it. It turned yummy and had a very different taste.
