About Cauliflower Kurma Recipe

A South Asian dish called Kurma or korma or qorma is a tasty dish with a gravy or sauce base that is popular both in India and Central Asia. A specialty of Mughlai cooking is korma. The region from which the Korma recipe is derived determines the base gravy or sauce.

Ingredients for Cauliflower Kurma Recipe

Onion

Onions are considered a basic ingredient or the foundation of Indian cooking and are used to make any gravy, curry, or bhuna dish. The flavour and aroma of onion transforms any ordinary dish into a mouthwatering and delectable one.

Cauliflower

Over the years, cauliflower has been selectively bred to develop a generally nutty and almost sweet flavour. Due to this, it is a desirable vegetable to consume and serve.

Turmeric Powder

The turmeric root is quite bitter, but has an almost citrusy taste, compared to the powder. Turmeric also has something of a sweet taste, and it is quite earthy. When you use the powder, you're unlikely to notice the texture unless you use a substantial amount, but it is somewhat gritty.

Frequently Asked questions

Is korma actually Indian?

The Mughlai cuisine of the Indian subcontinent is where korma first appeared. It dates to the 16th century and the Mughal incursions into the area, making it a typical Mughal dish.

Cauliflower kurma is made from cauliflower, peas, coconut, nuts, spices, and herbs. This warming side dish, which is lightly spiced and flavorful, is absolutely delicious.

Why cauliflower is called Gobi?

The Mongol language's word for a barren desert is gobi, which Europeans corrupted into cobi. However, the majority of the land was covered in low grass, gravel, or scrub, giving rise to the general name "gobi," which in Mongolian means "stony desert."

    This is a great curry. I've made 2-3 times and I love it.

    Cardamom = Elachi/Elakki
    And
