    A NINE JWELL CURRY : NAVRATAN KORMA

    Jagriti ShuklaBy Jagriti ShuklaMarch 20, 20234 Mins Read

    It is an exotic dish from the Hearts of Mughlai cuisine, Navratan Korma. It is made with nine different vegetables, nuts in a mild & semi-sweet creamy gravy. “Navratan” – nav meaning ‘nine’ and ratan for ‘gems’… As the name suggests, the dish is exotic in every aspect and is also referred to as the Nine Gems Curry or Nine Jeweled Curry. The nine main ingredients in this recipe are a combination of vegetables with nuts. “Korma” which has its royal origins from the Mughlai cuisine of the Indian subcontinent, signifies dishes cooked in a mix of spices, dry fruits, nuts, and cream. Navratan Korma is a culmination of exotic and royal flavors, a delicacy with a perfect balance of spices.

    It is a mix of vegetables that are cooked in a rich and delicious gravy. This is loaded with cream and dairy goodness. There are many variations of this korma; using different spices, adding fresh fruits, replacing cream with yogurt, and so on. The blanched/ parboiled vegetables are cooked in a thick creamy curry which is slightly sweeter and coats your mouth with its lush texture.

    Korma is a culinary word from Middle Eastern Cooking. Originally, Korma is a thick sauce used for basting meats and vegetables cooked/grilled on charcoal. Now Navratan Korma is an adapted version from the original and is made with vegetables. The creamy texture of the curry is so captivating that one can easily overeat it when served along with naan, parantha, or rice.
