Best Vegetable Korma (vegan, gluten-free)

I love how bold, warming, and flavorful Indian food is. This vegetable korma is truly the best homemade korma that is vegan and gluten-free. It’s packed with flavor and filled with veggies. The sauce is nice and creamy thanks to the coconut milk. It’s a great meal to make on a cold day and when you want to make something nutritious, yet delicious. I love eating it with rice or warm, toasted naan. You can definitely customize the veggies and use whatever protein or vegetables you like. This would also be very good with tofu. This korma sauce is truly amazing and makes for a healthy meal to feed your family.

Best Vegetable Korma (vegan, gluten-free)

Ingredients

  • 1/2 yellow onion, roughly chopped
  • 5 big cloves garlic
  • 1/2 inch ginger
  • 2 (14 oz) cans diced tomatoes
  • fresh cracked black pepper (like 10 twists)
  • 1 tbsp olive or avocado oil (or any oil you like)
  • 1 tsp ground turmeric
  • 2 tsp garam masala
  • 1/2 tsp cardamom
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 2 tsp coriander
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1/2-1 tsp salt
  • 1 small head cauliflower, chopped into florets
  • 2 big carrots, diced
  • 1 medium golden potato, diced (or any kind of potato)
  • 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup canned coconut milk
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

Instructions

  • In a high speed blender, add the onion, garlic, ginger, canned tomatoes, and cracked pepper. Blend on high for one minute, or until smooth.
  • In in a large pot, heat oil over medium high heat. Add the bay leaves and cook for 30 seconds. Add the spices: turmeric, garam masala, cardamom, cinnamon, paprika, coriander, cayenne, and salt. Saute and cook for 30-60 seconds or until fragrant, careful not to burn the spices. Add the blended mixture to the pot and turn heat down to medium. Cook, while stirring frequently, for 7-8 minutes so the onions and tomatoes can get cooked through.
  • Once the mixture thickens a little and smells fragrant (roasted) and not “raw” anymore, add the veggies and chickpeas. Stir and add the coconut milk. Stir until well combined. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes until vegetables are cooked through.
  • Add lemon juice and stir to combine. Taste and adjust flavors by adding more salt, pepper, and/or coconut milk. Serve with rice, hot naan, or flatbread. Enjoy!
