Serving Tips

With Indian flatbreads like Naan, paratha, or roti, chicken korma curry is usually served. Before serving, spread ghee over the flatbreads to add flavor and keep them soft. It also pairs nicely with rice, particularly when given with it during lunchtime. You can use Jeera rice, basmati rice, or plain steamed rice and accompany it with Raita. 

Storing Tips

Chicken that has been marinated can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Cooked Chicken kurma can be kept for up to 4 days in an airtight container. Before heating it, it is best to let it sit outside for at least 30 minutes. After removing it from the refrigerator, you can reheat it in the microwave for up to one minute
