What is the difference between Korma and Pasanda- By Chef Raman


Historically, Korma and Pasanda are two totally different dishes:-

Korma is a pale yellow mutton curry. It has Yogurt, Cardamom Black-pepper Ginger and lots of saffron. Ground Almonds are cooked in to give it a smooth creamy texture. Sometimes dried fruits may be added. In essence Korma is pale yellow creamy mild sauce made of yogurt and almonds

Pasanda is a creamy white curry made with sirloin cut of the leg. Sirloin was considered as the better cut or choice cut or Pasanda. It has yogurt and ground cashews and cardamoms. Cream may be added for added light texture. In essence Pasanda is a white creamy mild sauce made with yogurt, cream and cashews. Pasanda is milder than Korma.
