Butter chicken next please AL mate, since I followed you from the start, its my birthday soon so having butter chicken for my dinner if you could help a brother out 🤣
I made this tonight- Nov 19th and followed your recipe exactly and it was amazing. I also garnished with some crushed cashews. Thanks for sharing your passion and appreciate your channel. Best Wishes from Calgary, Canada 🇨🇦
Al!! Hope you survive your flu! I like the 'Pride' brand of coconut milk: I now always look at the coconut milk content as some brands are quite low in coconut milk (guar gum etc) by percentage. Boy, that's a big pot! Best Tony
❤ how much coconut milk powder would you advise instead of the tinned milk? Also assume we would need to up the amount of onion water if using milk powder?
That looks gorgeous, but I haven't got any coconut milk or cream or yougurt or saffron. So I'm going to make a vindaloo with some leftover roast chicken.
A good curry house near me, does a 'Sondia' dish, which is Korma with sliced with green chillies. So if you like a kick and a Korma, add some Chillies. A bad curry house near me uses desiccated coconut, never had it as I hate bounty bars, a texture thing. Tip top vid again Al.
Ok so I've ate all of your currys and they are fab can't wait to try this one! We had the chasni one AGAIN tonight! Any chance you could do a sagg aloo one 😊
Al I followed your recipe from the description is 9 tbsp of coconut poedwr correct as in the video you said follow the description but in the comments you told a viewer 3 tbsp please can you confirm
Not had a korma since the boil in the bag vesta's in the 70s. Your 30 min curries are a real godsend for quick midweek curry fixes.Mind you,i always batch cook gallons of the base sauce and have a fridge freezer in the mancave thats literally literally beer and base!!! Ive even thrown the base ingredients into a soup maker and boiled up the acni stock separately and rattled through that process in 30 mins. This korma looks great and intend to break my tradition and go 'mild' this week! Chunky air fryer chips and rice at the ready!! Hope you get well soon and look forward to your next production Al. Keep on Currying!
I originally had to order the coconut milk powder, then started buying it at the local world foods shop, but now it's available in our local supermarket.
Just cooked that Al and it was amazing! Family loved it best korma ever fair play . Fingers crossed you get a chance to show us a butter chicken . Had to redeem myself after doing your chilli garlic a few weeks back nearly killed the kids 😂
Thank you for your support! I'm glad to hear that my method of boiling and blending onions worked well for you. I'll definitely keep all the videos up so you can continue working through them. Keep up the great work!
Al If you use Maggies coconut powder how much onion water do you use is it an addition 400ml as you use 200 ML with the spice mix and do you add the coconut powder with the almond powder you can get maggies from Asda would you use 4 tablespoons of cocnut powder great video
Aldi's chicken korma was fantastic before shrinkflation obviously caused them to change the formula. They seemed to have reduced the coconut milk and replaced the lime juice with vinegar.
With any kind of blended sauce (in this case, the blended onions) i have a horrendous time with splattering when trying to cook it down. The only alternative I can find is to lower the heat and really slowly cook the paste down for like an hour - but that defeats the point of having a 30 min recipe! How to avoid this?
There's a couple ways I know to get a pretty good BIR Korma, surprisingly (well to me anyway) both routes use different ingredients, either way, my favourite is to add some slices of banana towards the end of cooking for my rendition of a Kashmiri Korma, just about any fruit works really.
You’ve knocked it out of the park with this one Al. Not my go to curry at all, but when I have one I enjoy it. On the other hand it’s the families favourite and wow, they have given it 10/10. Thanks pal
Cooked this tonight. Family loved it. There are layers of creaminess to this, but a good savoury background too. More of a chilli chicken man myself but this was really good as korma goes. Going to put a bit of Mr Naga in it later ...
Hi Al, your recipes and instructions are superb, totally idiot proof. I love the way you are super clear about everything, from measurements to techniques, cooking tools, ingredients, timings.... you need deserve a 1m + subscribes at least!
Followed your recipe Al, let it stand in the fridge for a couple of days, meanwhile made the Punjabi curry. Reheated tonight with your onion salad. 10/10. Which olive oil you using now? Aldi/lidl. ? Not xtra virgin surely?
Going to try this curry in the next few days. The coconut total content seems elusive. The block is mentioned but not sure it’s needed with the milk/milk powder. Last time I used block format it was rancid tasting :/ Should the canned milk suffice? Plenty of almonds and cashews are going in for certain! Cheers
I was reading somewhere that there are many, many different kormas from different regions. What I'd like to see is a korma with plenty of heat, like the Indian equivalent of a Thai green curry if like. Great work as usual Al, thank you.
Made today and it was lovely, had it with coconut, pineapple mango rice. Sprinkled with toasted almonds coconut and chilli flakes. Going to be a regular.
My wife said it was lovely.... take that it was a successful journey into the dark side of currys. Its was great actually, could be a family favourite. ❤
Love your series of the 30 minute curries . . I’ve tried several and am really pleased with the results . . I would love to see you do a 30 minute chicken and mushroom balti so I can make that too please !! Thanks mark
I will be giving this one the taste test this weekend for sure. Just so that I have a mild curry available in my locker for the non spicy curry lovers that I sometimes have to cater for. Does this one freeze okay Al?
Excellent video and series, looking forward to making this one, i've already made some of the other 30 mins and have to say that it's the best tasting curry ive had that wasn't a takeaway , blows away the supermarket stuff. Could you recommend an alternative to almond powder as we nut allergies in the household
Made this for dinner this evening, the whole family loved it, tasted as good as any restaurant korma. Only suggestion is it was a bit too oily, ill drop to 80ml next time i make it :)
AL..These 30 min Curries are the Dogs doo doos I Love them All and they are really Good and this Comes from An Indian by Birth and Now in the Uk...I can see you doing some more of these In the Future as New Recipes Come Out....well done again👌
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm thrilled to hear that you're enjoying my 30-minute curry recipes. I'll definitely keep them coming as new recipes come out. Stay tuned for more delicious dishes!
That was amazing Al. All the family are korma lovers and they said it was as good as a sit down. I added the coconut block. Glad I did. Top man and thank you
Making this right now. It smells delicious. i don't add sugar but will check and if it needs a little sweetness will add some hot mango chutney at the end. Also adding a thinly sliced green chilli at the end.
So thanks to the Korma I got a face sprayed with warm tea at breakfast. Wifey: I've got some chicken maybe I'll do a curry tonight... we'll see..." Me: "Al did a Korma last night, not seen it yet" Wifey: "Nope. I saw the ingredients on Facebook...all that sugar!" (takes a mouthful of tea) Me: "Chicken Pudding " Wifey: "PFFffft.. choke, splutter, choke...." Me: "Thanks Al" 🥴
Tried this tonight, came up lovely except I seemed to have far too much liquid, so much that I couldn’t add the cream. I cooked it in a flat bottomed wok. It tasted fine, just soo much liquid, where did I go wrong. Should I drain water off the onion paste after blending?
Hi Al …. Love your recipes. Ever think of putting the above steps and /or ingredients on to a PDF ready for sending direct to the printer. Be handy to have them on paper as we prep!! Keep up the good work
I don't see why not. If you add it before any liquid is introduced I wouldn't want to burn it on the pan. So I'd say add it in with the onion water and mix in@@IfanEmyr
Butter chicken next please AL mate, since I followed you from the start, its my birthday soon so having butter chicken for my dinner if you could help a brother out 🤣
Love the quip about not being into nuts, contrary to popular opinion 😂😂😂 made me laugh
Holy Karp you can cook a Missionary in that pot. Yummy.
When boiling my onions, I add upwards of half a chicken stock cube and half teaspoon of my spice mix or garam masala
when will your BIR cookbook be published ?
Hi Al if you did want to use the coconut milk powder, how much would you use?
A glass of coconut milk powder needs 2Tbsp so 400ml would need 4Tbsp but you may need more onion water as its less liquid for the curry
Nice one mate. Best, Rik
Need to find a use for all the base gravy I've got in my freezer now.😢
I made this tonight- Nov 19th and followed your recipe exactly and it was amazing. I also garnished with some crushed cashews.
Thanks for sharing your passion and appreciate your channel.
Best Wishes from Calgary, Canada 🇨🇦
Tesco sell Maggi coconut milk powder great video as always Al

Just made your chicken Madras tonight. So will definitely give this one a go. Cheers Al

Keep on Currying!
Chicken Korma madras hot ...beautiful 😋
Beautiful stuff pal! Looks the absolute cocoNUTs! 🥥 👌🏼X
Great series. Thanks Al .. Xmas is coming and I hope Santa brings me one of these cooking pots ... !! and I hope he brings everything you want.
Please don't end the series without doing a 30 minute chicken naga 🙏
Another belter Al. Try crispy fried onions to garnish.
Love these blended onion base 30 min curries. Keep ‘em coming. Can we have a chicken Ceylon this style pls?
I’ve just made it. I’ll never buy a korma again… this is epic…. Ticks all the korma boxes…
I originally had to order the coconut milk powder, then started buying it at the local world foods shop, but now it's available in our local supermarket.
I love the music getting more intense as Al gets less able to speak
Just cooked that Al and it was amazing! Family loved it best korma ever fair play . Fingers crossed you get a chance to show us a butter chicken . Had to redeem myself after doing your chilli garlic a few weeks back nearly killed the kids 😂
lol, thanks for setting my Alexa to a 10 minuter timer for me!
Great recipe Al, get well soon fella
gonna try this this tomorrow. i have the cream coconut block, when do i put that in?
Stage 3
I made it and it was nice ...... but I would use mixed spice not curry power next time , as it turned green 😂
Yum,hope you’re feeling better
Please leave all the videos up so I can work through them. I've used your method of boiling and blending onions it works a treat thanks.
Thank you for your support! I'm glad to hear that my method of boiling and blending onions worked well for you. I'll definitely keep all the videos up so you can continue working through them. Keep up the great work!
We need a lamb saag!!!
It's one of the only Indian dishes, that has never appealed to me.

Bro, How to purchase your spice powders, Greetings and best wishes from India.. Iam a big fan of your recipes.. Apeitising Recipe..
I’ve made this at least 8 times since it came out. I add coconut powder and coconut milk. By far the best korma recipe
Wonderful!
Looks great Al 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
My spices from Spicy Joe have just arrived- that’s tomorrow’s meal sorted ✔️
With any kind of blended sauce (in this case, the blended onions) i have a horrendous time with splattering when trying to cook it down.

Pls upload your Powder Masala Recipes.. Eagerly Waiting..

Another top video Al, thank you. Not a Korma fan myself, however, i shall defo try this one. YNWA ❤
I’ve really enjoyed every curry I’ve cooked so far , have you thought about writing a cook book ?
I was reading somewhere that there are many, many different kormas from different regions.
What I'd like to see is a korma with plenty of heat, like the Indian equivalent of a Thai green curry if like.
Great work as usual Al, thank you.
Hi Al just done the korma first superb.if I would use coconut powder what would you suggest thanks bill.
This is delicious Al. Thank you for your vids. Curry game changer
If I have the coconut milk powder do I still need the coconut milk? Or does anything change? Or is it just extra?
Made today and it was lovely, had it with coconut, pineapple mango rice. Sprinkled with toasted almonds coconut and chilli flakes. Going to be a regular.
Made this for Friday night dinner. 👌 spot on will make others.
Looks banging 💛 so cooking this !! My favourite curry
Thank you Al xx

Contrary to popular belief I don't like nuts 😂
The curry looks great Al can't wait to try it!
Thank you
Dipuraja chicken korma as always been my number 1 to go to. I'll give this a go tho al 😊
I will be giving this one the taste test this weekend for sure. Just so that I have a mild curry available in my locker for the non spicy curry lovers that I sometimes have to cater for.
Does this one freeze okay Al?

Reasonable but is this it? Korma can accommodate more spice.
Spot on, maybe a few more TBps Moderate/hot Curry Powder.
My favourite Al and the twist with the blended onion and the Saffron amazing 🎉👏
Cracked me up Al! Can't believe your not into nuts!🤣😂 Going to give this a try tonight (the curry , not some nuts) Thanks as always.
Made this afternoon and it was mint! Defo need to try it with beef or lamb which is what I usually have it with from the takeaway.
Cheers Al 🥂
AL..These 30 min Curries are the Dogs doo doos I Love them All and they are really Good and this Comes from An Indian by Birth and Now in the Uk...I can see you doing some more of these In the Future as New Recipes Come Out....well done again👌
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm thrilled to hear that you're enjoying my 30-minute curry recipes. I'll definitely keep them coming as new recipes come out. Stay tuned for more delicious dishes!
I think you should edit the 'doo doo's' to 'doo dah's' which is what I _think_ you meant, otherwise it sounds as if this curry is a bit sh1t....🙃😄
🤣🤣 Yeah My Mistake.. They Certainly are Not a Bit S**T...as you Put it.. well worth The effort@@Red_Snappa
That was amazing Al. All the family are korma lovers and they said it was as good as a sit down. I added the coconut block. Glad I did. Top man and thank you
What about Passanda?
Sat in bed with man flu watching this, you are a warrior Al , i think you need to get back on the Bishops Finger though, just what the doctor ordered.
Hi folks. So gonna attempt the korma this weekend but can only get ground almond. Will this be ok instead of powder? Thanks.
Struggling to find the pan that Al's using. Could someone point me in the right direction please?
Thanks.
Al, as ever looks & I'm sure it tastes amazing! Thanks for sharing! 🙂😋
Excellent, love your work. These recipes never disappoint.
Delicious 😋
This weekend I’m doing the Dishoom Ruby but this is next for me.
Al love the way you come across with all your cooking. I have been there with you from day one. Curry on Al
Making this right now. It smells delicious. i don't add sugar but will check and if it needs a little sweetness will add some hot mango chutney at the end. Also adding a thinly sliced green chilli at the end.
Hope you fell better now! If not get well very soon :) another great video Al!
Great video Al when would you add the coconut block and does it replace anything or is it an extra ?
So thanks to the Korma I got a face sprayed with warm tea at breakfast.
Wifey: I've got some chicken maybe I'll do a curry tonight... we'll see..."
Me: "Al did a Korma last night, not seen it yet"
Wifey: "Nope. I saw the ingredients on Facebook...all that sugar!" (takes a mouthful of tea)
Me: "Chicken Pudding "
Wifey: "PFFffft.. choke, splutter, choke...."
Me: "Thanks Al" 🥴
Now I ve corrected my mistake in the text I've lost the "Al's ❤️" he sent me ☹️
Great content as always Al. Love it. Thank you for all the effort you put in to these for us. Hope you're not too poorly? All the best. Justin
What happened to the dipping chips 😢 another good one to try. As below a Ceylon would be good.
Sultanas would have been a good addition, they plump up and add a bit more sweetness.
Made this tonight. Super easy and better tasing than most of the takeaways round my way!
Tried this tonight, came up lovely except I seemed to have far too much liquid, so much that I couldn’t add the cream. I cooked it in a flat bottomed wok. It tasted fine, just soo much liquid, where did I go wrong. Should I drain water off the onion paste after blending?
Just reduce it down for longer
i saw you al...you nearly put that coconut milk instead of onion water in😜
Thanks for this will try on monday I have a free day so perfect.
Thank you 😊 another superb 30 minute curry
Microwave the cream before you dump it into the hot curry :)
11:26 laughed out loud. While making said korma
Hi Al …. Love your recipes. Ever think of putting the above steps and /or ingredients on to a PDF ready for sending direct to the printer. Be handy to have them on paper as we prep!! Keep up the good work
I too would love z print button copy to use along with video.
Outstanding context al love all your videos
Hi Al did you used to work at Airline taxi's Leeds many moons ago?
Loving your recipes, all my friends and family think I'm better than restaurant's 😅
Never worked there lol
Can I ask have you ever done a biriani??
Yes. Search youtube. Als Biriyani
Hi Al! I have coconut milk powder so I think I will use that instead of milk. How much should I use?
9 tablespoons but you'll need 500ml of the onion water too
Thanks very much Al :)@@AlsKitchen
Would you add the coconut milk powder same time as you would add the coconut milk if you use powder instead of milk? Thanks
I don't see why not. If you add it before any liquid is introduced I wouldn't want to burn it on the pan. So I'd say add it in with the onion water and mix in@@IfanEmyr
