Chicken Korma(Quick Method)


After moving abroad, without the mixie/mixer-grinder, I really need to think of a work-around with recipes which require grinding masalas in the mixer. Same was applicable when I wanted to make vegetable korma or the chicken korma. This is a very quick method which you can finish making in 15 minutes flat. Goes well with rotis, or toasted bread.

A life-saver recipe for any office-goer who longs for a ghar ka khana at the end of a busy day.
