Ingredients
- 1 packet of Quorn Vegan Pieces
- 1 medium sweet potato
- 1 courgette
- 1 carrot
- 2 cups green peas
- 1/2 small cauliflower (3-4 florets)
- 2 onions
- 3 cloves of garlic
- 1 tomato
- 1 inch ginger
- 3 green cardamom pods
- 3/4 tsp turmeric powder
- 1 tsp cumin powder
- 1 tsp coriander powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika powder
- 1/4 tsp chilli powder
- 1/3 tsp cinnamon powder
- 3 cloves
- 6 black pepper corns
- 1/2 tsp coriander seeds
- 2 tbsp coconut sugar
- 1 can full fat coconut milk
- 1/3 cup soaked cashews (soak in boiled water for at least 30 minutes)
- 1 green chilli
- 1 and 1/3 tsp salt or to taste
To garnish:
- chopped fresh coriander
- 3 tbsp almond flakes
Method
- Dice the onions and tomato. Crush the ginger and garlic. Sauté the onions, ginger and garlic in a bit of coconut oil until tender. Do not let onions go brown though! We need the korma sauce as yellow as possible.
- Add the tomato and a bit water. Add salt and powdered spices. Sauté 5-7 minutes until tomato melts. Add soaked cashews. Blend the sauce in a high speed jug blender (soup blender doesn’t handle cashews very well and we need them blended into rich creamy sauce consistency).
- Then add the rest of the spices: cardamom pods, coriander seeds, black pepper corns, coconut sugar, coconut milk and chopped green chilli.
- Cut the carrot in 1 cm slices and sweet potato in 8 equal-sized pieces. Add carrot and sweet potato to the sauce. Simmer for 5 minutes.
- Add Quorn Vegan Pieces and a bit of water. Simmer for 5 minutes.
- Cut the cauliflower into small florets and add it to the pot with a bit more water.
- Cut the courgette in 1 cm slices (do not peel) and add as well. Add the green peas. Simmer 10 more minutes, until all veggies are tender. Don’t stir too much or veggies will fall apart.
- Cashews and coconut milk should make your korma sauce thick and creamy.
- Serve with basmati rice and vegan naan bread. Garnish with almond flakes and chopped fresh coriander prior to serving.
