Veg Sweet Korma

Many years ago, when I was new to Veg Korma, I found most of the restaurants including Diana in Udupi and Komal's in Mangalore serving slightly sweetish korma and I liked that taste better than the typical South Indian Saagu or Koorma. However, the colour that kind of korma had was golden brown, as against the South Indian red one! I thought of experimenting with Sweet Korma North style with the colour of South style!

Here's Veg Sweet Korma. I am convinced that it tastes good to me. Why not to you and your family, especially kids!
