Discover the North Indian delicacy and my all-time favorite korma dish! If you are an Indian food lover and you've never tried a korma dish, then now is the time. The cashew-based creamy sauce is to die for.  Even just the thought of the dish makes me hungry again!

What do you think of Indian food? Has it caught you in the web of overeating too? My hubby and I never seem to get enough of the Indian dishes and rich flavors. Every time we go to an Indian restaurant or make it ourselves, full and satisfied bellies are a fact!
