In this case, the addition of cashews, raisins, and chunks of paneer is what makes it “royal”.Ĭhicken Shahi Korma was my absolute favorite thing to order at our favorite Indian restaurant back in Minneapolis - Taste of India. “Shahi” refers to the dish being “royal”, and it’s a dressed up version of a basic korma. While Korma is a pretty commonly available offering on Indian restaurant menus, Shahi Korma tends to be much more rare. Aside from the pureed nuts, they tend to contain onions and other aromatics, spices, and either yogurt or coconut milk.
Most commonly, I’ve seen it as a creamy curry, where the rich sauce contains pureed cashews. Korma is a fairly common item when ordering Indian food, but can be vary wildly in terms of what it is. Now that we’ve moved home to Canada - far away from the favourite restaurant that inspired it! - it’s become a VERY handy recipe to have on hand! This had been a favourite for a while before posting. Things had calmed down a little, so I had decided to finally blog my Chicken Shahi Korma recipe! Worth the bit of effort it takes to make it!īack when I first posted this - eight and a half years ago - I was just at the end of an incredibly busy few weeks, preparing for the release of “Twisted: A Minneapolis Tornado Memoir”. This Chicken Shahi Korma recipe is a replica of our favourite dish at a Minneapolis Indian restaurant we used to frequent (Taste of India).
