  • Add fresh cream and mix well.
  • Cook until oil starts to float on top finally add crushed kasoori methi and coriander leaves and switch off.

Notes

  • Cooking – I cook the tomato and cashew puree well until raw smell leaves.
  • Using mushrooms – I add mushrooms after masala cooks well. I do not overcook as mushrooms may turn too soft.
  • Adding cream – I add cream at last and mix gently. I do not boil too much after adding cream.
  • Adjusting consistency – I added little water if gravy becomes too thick. It should be smooth and slightly thick.
  • Final flavour – I crush kasoori methi and add at end. It gives a good aroma to the curry.
