korma
Mild yogurt curry
Korma is a South Asian dish of meat or vegetables braised in a mild, creamy sauce made with yogurt, cream, or ground nuts.
The sauce is typically enriched with spices like cardamom, coriander, and cumin but without the heat of other curries: chicken korma, lamb korma.
It's a common entry point for those new to Indian cuisine.
