chicken tikka korma
« on: August 25, 2010, 07:22 PM »
(As demonstated on my recent cookery lessons)

Ingredients
-----------------

pre cooked chicken tikka  (http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=4934.0)
2 full ladles of base sauce  (http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=4909.0)
2 teaspoons of white sugar
2 teaspoons of almond powder
1 heaped teaspoon coconut powder
5 tablespoons coronation milk
flaked almonds

Place pan onto a low heat,add base sauce and milk and stir gently.
Add almond powder,sugar and coconut powder.Add chicken and ensure this is reheated.Be careful not to burn the sauce.When ready garnish with the flaked almonds.

Initially I thought this one was a bit too simple,however when I tasted it the flavour was just right.I don't normally do kormas but I have to say it was spot on.Usually kormas come with just plain chicken but I only really eat chicken tikka.Notice there's no ginger/garlic or spice mixture,as the chef said it should be very mild/creamy and not at all spicy.

Many thanks for sharing this recipe, and all the others too.


You said 'Coronation' milk. Do you mean Carnation milk, by any chance, like used to make Banoffee Pie, for example?

George if I recall correctly, the IG use evaporated milk not condensed milk which is used to make banoffee pie.

Can you confirm which you are using JB.

Hi JB,

You may have mentioned this before, but what size is your ladle please?  Mine is a 240ml ladle, typical of a pro kitchen one. Would 2 of these be too much?

I've seen similar recipe's like this for Korma, all had very good reviews.

My ladle is about that size I guess.2 full ladles will give you plenty of sauce but the sauce should be simmered for a couple of minutes so it will actually reduce.If in doubt I would use 1 1/2 and add a bit more if it it needs it.
