Korma 101

With its origins in India, korma is a dish of braised meat or vegetables cooked with cream, broth and spices to form a thick, gravy-like curry sauce. For our meat-free version, we combine sautéed mushrooms and zucchini, with coconut milk, curry spices and ground almonds. Served over aromatic Success® Basmati Rice, this is a simply stunning weeknight meal!

For more information about the difference between curries, take a look at our Beginner’s Guide to Understanding Curry.

Meaty Vegetables

With a different variety available year-round, mushrooms are a great alternative to using meat in your dishes. If you’re looking to make more plant-based meals, start with Success® Rice and Quinoa and build your meals using vegetables, fruits and legumes.

Vegetables that have a heartier and meatier texture, such as mushrooms or eggplants, are perfect for using instead of meat in your favorite recipes. Try this recipe, then use eggplants in our Crispy Eggplant and Tomato Rice Bowl. We guarantee, you’ll love them both!  Looking for a new dinner idea? Try our: Quick Spanish Rice.
