  • 1 teaspoon red chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh coriander leaves, chopped for garnish

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Nuts Paste

  1. Blend Nuts: Drain the soaked cashew nuts and blend them along with the blanched almonds into a smooth paste. Add a little water if needed.

Step 2: Fry the Onions

  1. Fry Onions: Heat ghee or oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and fry until they turn golden brown and caramelized. Remove and set aside. Once cooled, blend the fried onions into a paste.

Step 3: Cook the Mutton

  1. Sauté Spices: In the same pot, add bay leaf, green cardamom, cloves, cinnamon stick, and cumin seeds. Sauté for a few seconds until aromatic.
  2. Add Ginger-Garlic: Add the ginger-garlic paste and green chilies. Sauté until the raw smell disappears.
  3. Cook Mutton: Add the mutton pieces and sear on high heat until they are browned on all sides.

Step 4: Prepare the Korma Gravy

  1. Add Spices: Reduce the heat and add coriander powder, cumin powder, garam masala, red chili powder, turmeric powder, and salt. Mix well to coat the mutton with spices.
  2. Add Yogurt and Onion Paste: Lower the heat and add the whisked yogurt gradually, stirring continuously to avoid curdling. Add the fried onion paste and mix well.
  3. Cook Slowly: Cover and cook the mutton on low heat for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Add water if needed to maintain the desired consistency.

Step 5: Finish the Korma

  1. Add Nuts Paste: Once the mutton is tender and cooked through, add the cashew-almond paste and heavy cream. Mix well and cook for another 10-15 minutes until the gravy thickens and is rich and creamy.
  2. Garnish: Garnish with fresh coriander leaves.

Step 6: Serve

  1. Serve Hot: Serve the rich and aromatic Mutton Korma hot with naan, roti, or steamed rice.
