Vegetable Korma ( Version 2 )
This is another version of Vegetable Korma which can be served along with Roti, Ghee Rice, Pilaf or Idiyappam. The ground coconut paste gives a creamy texture and the perfect blend of spices enhances the taste. This will definitely be a treat for veggie lovers.

I tried this veg kurma today. It turned out very well and so tasty. Me and my husband loved it. Big thanks to you and your mother in-law.
Thanks Akila for the try..Letting us know how it has come is very encouraging for us..Thank you 🙂
Thank you everyone !!!
This was excellent, but I did make a number of modifications because it didn’t look like the photo, and I really loved the look of the dish in the photo! I did taste it before my modifications though and thought it was good. The photo showed a saucy, tomatoey dish but it was not so after following the recipe. The recipe says, simply, “add some water.” After I added enough to make it saucy, the flavors were diluted. I added half a can of tomato paste to give it a tomato sauce. Loved the coconut/fennel combo, and I doubled that to give it more flavor. I think I also threw in more of the other spices as well. And some cream b/c the photo looked creamy. Yum.
Hi,
Thanks for trying out this korma. The color is because of the tomato and red chilli powder.I too love the coconut and fennel combo and I did not add cream.We should add water so that it is saucy. Two to 3 cups is sufficient.
