◇ Pro Tips for Perfect Qorma

• Slow Cooking is Key — Qorma develops its signature depth of flavor through slow, low-heat cooking. Patience yields the best results.

• Yogurt at Room Temperature — Always use room-temperature, whisked yogurt and add gradually to prevent curdling.

• Fried Onions — Caramelized, golden-brown fried onions are essential for authentic qorma flavor. Fry until deep golden but not burnt.

• Dum Cooking — For an authentic touch, cover the pot with a tight lid and place on very low heat (dum) for the final 10 minutes.

• Garnish Generously — Fresh coriander, fried onions, and a sprinkle of qorma masala elevate the final dish.

• Ghee for Authenticity — Using ghee instead of oil adds a rich, traditional flavor.
