Havent tried any curry with corn..Nice one.looks yummy
Yummy Korma, Medhaa! And nice to see a M/W version too. thanks for sharing.. :)
Never made any kurma with corn but sounds delicious :)
Simple ,tasty and above all it cud be used as a versatile curry,since any of the veggie can be used.....I think its high time i start using some curd instead of just tomatoes,i think that will make lot of difference in texture and tanginess.....
thanks for sharing!
