1/4 cup raw cashews

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 medium potatoes (cut into small, bite-sized pieces)
4 cups mixed chopped vegetables (cauliflower, carrots, beans, bell peppers, corn, and peas all work well)
1 tablespoon oil
1 large onion (chopped)
2 inch piece of ginger (peeled and chopped)
4 cloves garlic (smashed with the back of a knife)
5.5 ounce can of tomato paste
1 tablespoon each: curry powder and garam masala
1 ½ teaspoons each: cumin, coriander, turmeric, cardamom
1-2 teaspoons sea salt
½ teaspoon each: ground cloves, fennel, fenugreek and chili flakes
1 can coconut milk
½ cup cashews
2 tablespoons lemon juice
½ cup yogurt (omit or use vegan yogurt for vegan)
1 tablespoon brown sugar (sub coconut sugar or honey for paleo)
Top with any or all: cashews, cilantro, lemon, and raisins

Steps:

  • Add the potatoes to a medium-sized pot, cover with water and bring to a boil. Let the potatoes boil for 5 minutes then add the rest of the veggies to the pot. Let them boil for another 5 minutes then drain the pot and set it aside.
  • While the veggies are cooking, start preparing the vegetarian korma sauce. Heat the oil in a medium-sized pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until it is soft, about 5 minutes. Add the ginger and garlic and cook for 2 minutes more.
  • Remove the pot from the heat and add the tomato paste and all of the spices. Stir well then return the pot to the heat. When the spices are fragrant and the tomato paste caramelized, after about 1 minute, add the coconut milk, cashews, lemon juice and 1 ¼ cups of water. Let the pot boil for 5 minutes to soften the cashews.
  • Working in batches, blend the curry until it is smooth then add it back to the pot. Stir through the yogurt and brown sugar and add more sea salt, if needed. Stir the veggies into the curry and serve immediately topped with any or all of the toppings.

  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. Korma is a versatile dish that can be tailored to your own taste. Some common spices used in korma include cumin, coriander, turmeric, garam masala, and chili powder.
  • Be sure to cook the vegetables until they are tender. This will help them to absorb the flavors of the sauce.
