Red Hot Korma
« on: August 12, 2010, 12:58 PM »
Hi

Has anyone ever tried adding some serious heat to a Korma?  I made one last night http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=312.0 thanks to George and using Dartphal's base thanks again ant it was a 100% copy IMHO of a good Korma from a TA. But....both my son and myself started takling about whether a Korma would be better with some serious heat added? Im going to give it a go next time but I'm interested whether anyone has tried this before and if there is a good recipe already out there?

lol I made a vindalorma/kormaloo not so long ago, didn't write down the recipe though but the curry was great! I told Razor about it - wish I could remember exactly what I used but I'm afraid I was a little on the merry side lol ;D Mixing a madras with a pathia is very nice too :P

I like having a crack at hybrid curries...anyone else do this at all?

Be nice if we could all get together to make up some new dishes... :)

Hi

One of the TA's I used to live near was very nice, but their curry was always too mild for me.

I always used to ask for a Tindaloo extra hot for me and a Korma or Tikka Masala for the wife.

One day something went wrong, I got a mild Tindaloo and a monster hot Korma. TBH the Korma was pretty hot and it really was not very nice - I just don't think that creamy with heat combo was working for me anyway.

Worth a try though, you may like it :)

Cheers

I prefer creamy sauces but I also like them hot, in fact I add  chilli to lots of dishes i.e., carbonara etc.  Here is my version of a chicken korma


1 Tblsp oil
2 small green chilli's chopped
Curry Base (I use Ashoka but whatever you prefer)
250ml UHT Single cream
Pre cooked chicken (I use chicken tikka)
2 tblsp Coconut milk powder
1 heaped tblsp ground Almonds



Fry chopped green chilli in oil for a couple of minutes add two ladels of curry base  cooking for a furher two mins then add Single Cream,  pre cooked meat and  coconut milk powder .

A few of my local takeaways do a hot korma with green chillies now, they call it 'Mirchi Korma'.          Jivyj
