Indian food is one of my loves and one of the things I miss the most since moving to Beaufort, SC is having Indian restaurants to go to. There are none. So if I want my Indian food fix, I either have to drive to Charleston or make my own. Chicken Korma is one of my favorites. I love the creaminess and sweetness and the nuttiness that cashews give it. It is a really great dish to make in a crock pot.

What Are The Spices In Slow Cooker Chicken Korma?

This Korma is fully loaded with Indian spices. There’s fresh ginger, garam masala (love the way this one smells), cumin, tumeric, cardamom, cinnamon, and crushed red pepper flakes. This dish is both sweet and spicy with a real depth of flavor. The sauce cooks up thick enough to really cling to a piece of naan or a mound of rice.

How To Make

  1. Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and place in the bottom of a 6-quart slow cooker.
  2. Place the next 12 ingredients in a blender. Add the liquid from the can of coconut milk. Blend until smooth and pour over the chicken.
  3. Stir in the onion and garlic.
  4. Cover and cook on LOW for 4 to 5 hours.
  5. Add the solid portion from the can of coconut milk and stir in.
  6. Serve.
