A few years back I and my husband visited Restaurant Karim’s near Nizamuddin Dargah, New Delhi. We ordered naan and mutton korma. When I ate this gosht korma I become a big fan of this combo. Especially the korma they have mixed peanuts and all other spices which we cannot find because all are blended and that thick masala we are just enjoying it. After much research and testing, I brought this special Nizami mutton korma for you with special korma masala, particularly poppy seeds and nuts that give a rich taste to our korma. I hope you will enjoy this recipe.
