Easy Vegan Vegetable Korma

Skip the Takeaway and make this Quick and Easy Vegetable Korma! It can be on your table in just 30 minutes, making it perfect for busy nights or midweek meals.

One thing I have identified recently is that I cook so many Quick and Easy Vegetarian Vegan recipes, ready in just 30 minutes, but somehow many of them never made it to the blog.

And one among those recipes is this Veg Korma, which is one of my favorite curries to whip up when I am in a hurry or even when I have cook for a potluck party. It is different to the South Indian style hotel kurma, that is usually served with porotta – but with similar flavors.

My version of the Indian korma is better than local Indian takeaways in the UK and quicker too!!

So here is one of our favorite Creamy Indian Korma recipe that cooks in just 20 minutes.

THE HOMEMADE VEGAN KORMA SAUCE

To make this creamy Indian Veg Korma, it all starts with a good Kurma sauce recipe.

Although you can buy store-bought sauce for convenience, I prefer to make it at home. Homemade Korma Sauce is authentic, delicious, full-on flavor and so much lighter in texture. It is so easy to customize the spice level when you make it at home.

First make the Onion Puree with white onion, ginger, garlic, chili, and cashew nuts. Add this prepared onion puree along with fragrant spice powders to the pan and cook briefly until fragrant.

This forms the base of the easiest and the most delicious Korma Sauce.

HOW TO MAKE EASY VEGETABLE KORMA?

This Veg Korma recipe is really one of those vegan Indian curries that you really cannot go wrong! Serve with your favorite flatbread, Green Chutney, pickle, and Raita.

I can admit, this Vegetable Korma is simply tastier than the Korma that my local Indian takeaway serves. Although we love so many of the dishes from our takeaway, I can vouch our homemade Vegetable Korma is the best!

Onion, Ginger, Garlic, Cashew nut, Coconut Flavored Sauce that is 100% Vegan and you really can’t go wrong with this Easy Vegetable Korma.

Stir in all the delicious spices – ground coriander, cardamom, cinnamon curry powder, black pepper, turmeric and you have one easy delicious Veg Korma.

You know how much we love Quick Korma Curry and I have another recipe for Creamy Tofu Korma for you to try if you run out of vegetables at home.
