Enjoy Chicken Korma on Eid-ul-Fitr

Hey pals! What's up? Hope you enjoyed my sugar feast, Baklava for Id-ul-Fitr. Here I come with a special dinner recipe called Chicken Korma. Korma is a Muglai specialty. DYK it is AKA (also known as) qorma, kormaa, khorma or kurma. Meat braised in extra spicy sauce and mixed with yogurt, cream and nuts, makes the family dinner table really tempting with this exotic treat. The recipe can be best paired with Naan or Kashmiri Rice. There are many more recipes related to this special occasion like Mutton Biryani, which is definitely an ace and the one I have already shared with you. Other delights include:-
-Sevai Kheer (Dessert)
-Haleem
-Chicken Tikka
-Roasted Chicken with Cranberries Rice
-Lamb Bhuna (Roasted Lamb Curry)
So I guess you have a bundle of meaty and sweet treat which you can definitely try on this long weekend.
