Rich, mildly spiced coconut and cashew gravy concentrate

Kurma (or Korma) is a rich, mildly spiced curry with a thick, creamy gravy, originating from the Indian subcontinent. It is made with a base coconut, cashew nuts and aromatic spices. Kurma can be vegetarian or non-vegetarian, and it is known for its smooth texture and balanced flavors.

Types of Kurma

  1. Vegetable Kurma – Made with mixed vegetables like potatoes, carrots, peas, and beans. Popular in South Indian cuisine, especially with chapati, dosa, or parotta.
  2. Chicken Kurma – A mildly spiced, creamy chicken curry, often enjoyed with naan or rice.
  3. Mutton Kurma – Rich and flavorful, made with slow-cooked mutton.

Kurma is thicker and milder compared to salna, which is spicier and more watery. South Indian kurma typically has a coconut-based gravy, while North Indian korma leans towards a nut and yogurt-based gravy.
