Chicken Korma Lasagna
December 4, 2015
To start the sauce I seared some diced chicken thighs.
Meanwhile, mix coconut milk with cashews in the food processor. I used coconut milk in this instead of the usual yogurt because with the acid level in the dish I was worried about the dairy separating in the oven.
After the chicken is browned I sauteed some onions and then added ginger, garlic, broccoli, tomatoes, and curry powder. The cashew coconut milk blend goes in last and then it simmers for a half hour.
Yummy stuff!
Then just layer it all up with the cooked noodles and some crumbled paneer.
This dish has nice deep satisfying flavors.
The sauce is familiar yet surprising at the same time! It was a true Indian lasagna mashup.
This is a great dish to make if you are looking for a new twist on lasagna, or if you have some friends over that think they don’t like Indian flavors.Chicken Korma Lasagna
