Idiappa Kurma | Parotta Kurma | Restaurant Style Vegetable Kurma
Jump to Recipe Jump to Video Print Recipe

Vegetable Kurma is a perfect accompaniment for many dishes like idiappam, Parotta, Roti/Naan and even for Dosa/ Idli. Even for Poori sometimes, this vegetable Kurma is served as accompaniment. A multi purpose dish, if done with right ingredients, we could get the same taste as served in restaurants. This version is a perfect restaurant style Kurma, I have tried and tested many times and my family loves it so much. Adding Curd and milk brings out a divine flavor to the dish.

I have seen many people making Kurma with Coconut milk instead of plain milk. I have tried and personally prefers plain milk. But surely you can alternate milk with coconut milk. Also instead of yogurt we can use heavy cream. Yogurt has less fat than heavy cream. So if you want to impress your family or guests with thick creamy Kurma, substitute yogurt with heavy cream and surely they will enjoy.

Tips for making Veg Kurma:

  1. We can use Coconut milk instead of regular milk.
  2. We can use Heavy cream instead of yogurt.
  3. If poppy seeds are not available, we can increase the quantity of cashews and coconut that will make the gravy thicker.
  4. We can use this similar method and instead of mixed veggies, we can just use only chopped beetroot. Beetroot Kurma will also taste very nice with Roti.
  5. In Mid-east countries, kasa-kasa (poppyseeds) are banned. Adding poppyseeds are optional, we can increase quantity of coconut instead. We are adding poppy seeds just to make the liquid in the korma to get thicken. Also poppy seeds add a nice nutty flavor. But if you don't have access or allergic to poppy seeds then you can skip and increase the coconut or cashew that will help the kurma to thicken.
