Chicken Korma is a gravy dish typically made with yogurt, nuts, and spices. A Mughal-era original, Chicken Korma is the perfect dinner party dish that is easy, quick, and a no-fuss recipe- one of the most popular Pakistani chicken korma dishes to create a mouthwatering dish. You can serve it with boiled/brown rice, naan, and roti.
This Pakistani chicken korma recipe does not call for many ingredients. You need just common ingredients, and a delicious Pakistani food recipe will be ready. I always prefer this delicious korma with matar pulao and flavored white basmati rice, along with raita and salad. I love to have this also with sheermal and tandoori naan.

Place a wok on the stove, add enough oil, then heat it. Now add onion slices into the hot oil. Fry on high heat until it turns translucent.
Constantly keep stirring; otherwise, the onion slices may burn dark. Now reduce the heat to low-medium, then keep stirring over medium heat until you get a nice golden brown color.
Now fry the onion, transfer it to the plate, and spread it; set aside.
Stir to mix well until the oil separates from the chicken.
Now add beaten yogurt, fried crumbled onions, and almond paste; stir to combine well.
Cover with the lid for 10 minutes or until the meat is tender. Remove the lid and sprinkle 1/2 tsp mace and nutmeg powder, and kewra essence. Simmer it for 10 minutes.
Now turn off the flame.

Jello custard is a literally lip-smacking layered jelly over
fruit custard. Layered jelly and custard is a delicious dessert that requires no fancy ingredients.
I prepared two flavors of custard, vanilla and
banana, and two jellies; one is banana and the other strawberry.
I made jello
custard in six glasses.3 glasses are the big ones, and the others are small. I
made five layers of custard and jelly in 3 big glasses. First, a
jelly layer, then custard layer; in the third layer, again jelly, and on top, banana
fruit custard. The last layer is jelly.
Likewise, I
made 3 layers of custard in a small glass first layer is vanilla fruit custard, and then on top are two jelly layers, one on top of the other.
You can choose any flavor of jelly and custard
that you want. I chose the strawberry flavor because I thought the red color
and the green looked great with the vanilla and banana custard. Just
sprinkled some crushed white chocolate on top to make the contrast pop.
The custard
layer is my favorite. I have made this a million times. I use store-bought
custard powder to make my custards. They are quick and taste great. You can
definitely make custard from scratch, but it is a tricky process.
I used these cute little shot glasses. They are
so convenient when dealing with guests who whine about being too full for
desserts 😊
I served this dessert in jelly custard cups
because it does look fancy and
attractive. Although this recipe will seem a bit longer than other jello custard recipes, since I
wanted to do something unique and different in my style, this is the reason I did.
However, you can prepare the recipe in your style too 😊
For the best result, follow my detailed step-by-step photo instructions and tips above the recipe card.
Recipe note:
When preparing your Jello
Custard Dessert, it's best to avoid using citric fruits like lemons, oranges,
or melons such as watermelon. Instead, opt for fruits like apples, bananas,
grapes, mangoes, cherries, and peaches, which will hold up well and complement
the flavors beautifully.
For an innovative presentation,
consider creating diagonal layers of jelly and custard. You can use a box
filled with rice to prop up your cups at an angle. Pour the hot jelly mixture
into these cups and let them set in the fridge.
When you're ready to serve,
carefully spoon the custard on top of the jelly layers. For added flair,
consider garnishing with crushed chocolate, chocolate chips, cherries,
chocolate sauce, or a dollop of whipped cream to elevate your dessert!
I used three fruits: bananas, grapes, and apples. You can use your choice of fruits, including cocktail fruits if you prefer.
Red and green jellies are commonly used in custard pudding, and I used the same for my recipe. However, feel free to choose any jelly that you like best. Just keep in mind that the jellies I used contain gluten, which many people try to avoid. Gluten-free jellies are readily available in the market, so those can be a great alternative.
When it comes to custard, I opted for banana and vanilla flavors because they pair beautifully with the red and green jellies. I prepared the jelly gradually, only making as much as I needed at the time, rather than making it all at once.
An important tip: never pour hot jelly water over the custard, as this will cause it to mix. Let the jelly cool to room temperature before adding it.

To begin this recipe, firstly chop the fruits. In the pan, combine all chopped fruits- bananas, apples, and grapes along with sugar and water.
Let them cook on a medium flame for
5 minutes, or until they turn slightly brown. These cooked fruits will help enhance the taste of custard, whereas raw fruits won’t give a taste like cooked
fruits.
Boil the water very well and let it remain on
the stove on a low flame.
In a small bowl, add 2 tbsp green
jelly powder with 6 tbsp hot water, and stir to mix well until the jelly is
dissolved.
Take 3 big glasses and pour the first layer of hot
jelly water into the glasses right away, before getting thickened.
Put the second layer
of fruit custard on top of the jelly.
Leave them aside for a while
The rest of the three small glasses were put in the first layer
of vanilla fruit custard and set aside for a while
On the other hand, the green jelly dissolves again in the same quantity that we had made before
In the third layer,r pour the jelly on top of the
custard. Leave them aside until the jelly is set.
Dissolve the red jelly in the same quantity of water.
Pour the second layer of jelly on top of the custard into small glasses.
Keep aside for a while till the jelly is set.
Lastly, dissolve the remaining green jelly again
and pour the final layer on top of the red jelly into the small glasses.
Leave them aside to cool completely.
Dissolve the custard in the same quantity of
milk that we made before
Pour the milk with sugar into the pan
and stir well. Boil the milk until the sugar is dissolved. Gradually pour
the dissolved custard into the milk.
Constantly keep stirring with a spoon to prevent lumps. Once the custard thickens, remove it from the stove. Next, add cooked fruits to the custard.

the jelly in the big glasses.
