Mutton korma recipe is a shahi recipe made with mutton and nutty paste and is full of rich and creamy ingredients. This mutton korma goes very well with pulao recipes or even with plain cooked rice. I like to make many korma recipes be it with vegetables or non-vegetarian and this non-veg mutton korma is absolutely delicious and lip-smacking one!!!

This shahi korma is one of my favourite recipes and is made regularly at home by my family members and is a very yummy recipe. In Hyderabad, korma recipes are usually given a final touch of coriander/dhania patta and mint/pudina leaves which give the best flavour to the dish.
I suggest adding fresh herbs as they decide the main flavor of the dish and also I use pepper powder to give extra flavor to the recipe.
