About Chicken Korma
Korma is a rich wedding-style curry: chicken or mutton braised in a gravy of fried onion paste, yogurt and ghee, often with a few nuts. It is one of the heavier desi curries — about 360 kcal per serving — because fried onion holds a lot of oil and the gravy is deliberately thick.
Tip: Korma is a celebration dish; enjoy it, but one serving with a single naan is already 600+ kcal.
