Ingredients

  • 2-1/2 cups chopped vegetables (cauliflower, green peas, carrot, green beans, red bell pepper)
  • 1/2 cup chopped fried paneer
  • 3 tbsp oil
  • 1/8 tsp asafetida hing
  • 1/2 tsp cumin seeds jeera
  • 1 green chili seeded finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp shredded ginger
  • 1 tbsp coriander powder dhania
  • 1/4 tsp turmeric haldi
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 bay leaves
  • 1/2 tsp garam masala
  • 1/2 tsp mango powder amchoor
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 tbsp corn starch

Garnish

  • 1/2 cup seeded and chopped tomatoes
  • 2 tbsp finely chopped cilantro

Instructions

  • Mix the shredded ginger, green chili, coriander powder, turmeric, and cayenne pepper with 2 tablespoons of water and set aside.
  • Mix cornstarch with milk and set aside.
  • Heat the oil in a saucepan. Test the heat by adding one cumin seed to the oil; if it cracks right away oil is ready. Add the asafetida and cumin seeds. After cumin seeds crack, add the bay leaves and the spice mixture. Fry for a few seconds until the spices start separating from the oil.
  • Add the cauliflower, green peas, carrot and green beans. Mix well and cover the pan. Let the vegetables cook on medium heat for about 7 to 8 minutes. The vegetables should be cooked just about half way.
  • Add the bell pepper and paneer. Mix well. Add the milk/cornstarch mixture and cook until the vegetables are tender. Add more milk if needed for more gravy.
  • Turn off the heat. Mix in the garam masala, amchoor powder and cilantro.
  • Place the vegetable korma in a serving dish and garnish with chopped tomatoes. Enjoy!

Notes

Substitutions and Variations
Substitute any vegetable, for example potatoes, cabbage, corn, and mushrooms or other vegetables. Four to six vegetables are a good number to use.
Tofu can be used instead of paneer.
For the gravy, you may replace 1-cup milk with 3/4 cups cream for a richer texture. Blending 1/4 cup cashew nuts with 1-cup milk will also give the gravy a richer texture.
Serving Suggestions
Vegetable serve with Roti or your choice of bread or over the rice
