Make the base

In a large pot, cook the chopped onion in the ghee over medium heat with the cardamom pods until soft and lightly golden, about 6-7 minutes. Add the ginger-garlic paste and cashews and cook, stirring, for 2 more minutes.

  • 1 onion
  • 2 tbsp ghee or coconut oil
  • 4 cardamom pods
  • 1 tbsp ginger-garlic paste
  • 40g cashews

✅ C'est prêt quand : onion is soft and lightly golden, cashews toasted

Blend

Stir in the turmeric, coriander and cumin for 20 seconds, then carefully transfer everything to a blender with half the coconut milk. Cover loosely and blend in short bursts until completely smooth, since the mixture is hot and pressure can build up.

  • ½ tsp turmeric
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • ½ tsp ground cumin
  • 100ml coconut milk
  • all the onion-cashew mixture from step 1

✅ C'est prêt quand : mixture is a completely smooth puree

History & Culture

The Story Behind the Dish

📍 South & West India📅 Modern home cooking🍚 IN

Korma sauces in the north are built on yogurt, cream and nuts; along India's coasts, cooks use coconut milk instead. This paneer korma brings the two traditions together.

It's a modern home favourite — quicker than a Mughlai korma and lighter on cream, but just as comforting.

⭐ Why It's Famous

Mild enough for children and ready in 40 minutes, this korma is an easy weeknight route to a creamy curry.

💡 Fun Fact

Soaking seared paneer in warm water before adding it to the sauce keeps it soft rather than rubbery.
