Chef's Notes
Do not skip the resting phase in Step 2. Yogurt is a natural tenderizer, and giving the spices time to penetrate the meat is the absolute secret to a truly regal Korma.
Pro Tip
When crushing your fried onions, do it by hand inside a zip-top bag to avoid losing any of that precious aromatic oil.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Dropping the fried onions into boiling oil while they are still clumped together, resulting in burnt bitterness and a gravy that tastes like an ash tray.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
They call it 'Royal' Korma, but I suspect the only thing royal about it is how long the cook expects the jester to wait for a taste.
The Culinary Science
Dairy proteins in the yogurt undergo tenderization when exposed to the mild acidity, breaking down tough collagen in the chicken without turning it to mush.

Meat Moisture Retention Protocol
Storage Science
Store in an airtight container in the coldest part of the refrigerator along with any cooking juices or sauces to maintain moisture. Consume within 3-4 days.
Reheating Science
Reheat gently in the oven at 300Β°F (150Β°C) or on the stovetop over low heat. Add a splash of broth or water and cover tightly to steam. This prevents the proteins from constricting and squeezing out their juices.
