Veggie korma
Ingredients
- 500 g alliums , (onions, leeks or a mixture of both)
- 30 ml olive oil
- 2 tablespoons curry powder
- 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 1 kg mixed veg , (Mediterranean, root, leafy)
- 750ml curry base sauce
- 350ml white base sauce
Method
- Recipe kindly shared by the Tesco Community Cookery School with Jamie Oliver. The recipe has been written to be flexible and scalable up to 50 portions. Note: all veg weights are for trimmed, prepped vegetables.
- Peel (or trim) and roughly chop the alliums.
- Place a pan large enough to hold all the ingredients on a medium heat with the oil.
- Add the alliums, curry powder and smoked paprika. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes or until the alliums are golden and softened, stirring frequently.
- Meanwhile, roughly chop the veg, keeping any leafy greens (if using) to one side for later.
- Add the chopped veg (except the leafy greens, if using) to the pan and cook with a lid on for a few minutes, or until softened.
- Note the liquid level in the pan, then pour in the curry and white sauces, the chickpeas (juice and all, if using) and 750ml of water.
- Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 35 minutes.
- Add the reserved leafy veg (if using). Bring back to the boil, and cook until the curry has reduced – the liquid should return to the same level as in step 7.
- Stir in the yoghurt until just warmed through.
- Season to taste with lemon juice, salt and black pepper.
