Chicken Korma

Chicken Korma is a mild, creamy curry. It has lots of flavourful spices, like cinnamon and cardamom, but not much heat. That makes it great for feeding kids or a crowd. For a dairy-free version, simply replace the yoghurt with coconut yoghurt or coconut cream. This recipe is part of our chicken thigh recipe collection.
