All in One Baked Korma - Pinch of Nom Slimming Recipes

For the full list of ingredients and comprehensive instructions, please see the recipe card below. Before you scroll, there’s important stuff in the blurb!

Cooking a curry at home is so rewarding but it can be messy and time consuming. That’s why we came up with this one pot korma recipe! 

Our All in One Baked Korma is creamy and flavourful, but it’s all cooked in one pot – even the rice. This saves so much fuss and means less washing up. Result!

To cut down on calories we’ve used a carton of dairy free coconut milk rather than the tinned version, which is much higher in calories. 

This gives the same nutty taste, whilst making sure the dish is still slimming friendly. 

The mildly spiced flavour of the korma soaks into the rice as it all cooks together, creating a delicious, hearty meal that the whole family will love. 

What diets is this All in One Baked Korma suitable for?

This All in One Baked Korma recipe is suitable for dairy free diets.

How do you know when All in One Baked Korma is cooked?

You should cook this All in One Baked Korma until the chicken is cooked through, with no pinkness, and all the liquid has been absorbed. This will take around 20-25 minutes in the oven.

To keep your family safe, the advice here in the UK is to cook food until it has reached 70°C and stayed at that temperature for 2 minutes.

How long can you keep All in One Baked Korma in the fridge?

Recipes that contain rice can be a source of serious food poisoning if it’s not stored properly. 

Rice can contain heat resistant spores that may turn into bacteria, so you should always take extra care when cooling and reheating.

You must remember to do the following if you’re going to keep leftover rice:

  • Cool the rice as quickly as possible (ideally within one hour) then put it in the fridge immediately. You can split larger portions up into smaller batches to cool quicker.
  • Reheat and use any leftover rice (stored in the fridge) within one day.
  • When you reheat any rice, always check it is steaming hot all the way through.
  • Don’t reheat cooked rice more than once.

Can I freeze All in One Baked Korma?

As when keeping rice in the fridge, make sure to do the following if you plan to freeze it:

  • Make sure it’s cooled and frozen as soon as possible after cooking (you can freeze in batches to speed this up).
  • Always reheat until piping hot, and never more than once.

How do I reheat All in One Baked Korma?

From chilled: Place in a microwave proof container with a loosely fitting lid and heat for 3-4 minutes until piping hot. Stir halfway through the cooking time. 

From frozen: Allow to defrost overnight in the fridge and reheat covered in the microwave for 3-4 minutes, stirring halfway through. Ensure the dish is piping hot.

For more information about reheating rice please take a look at the NHS website.

Made this yesterday- it was delicious! Best thing is that all the clearing up can be done whilst it’s cooking so you can just relax with a belly full of gorgeousness after lunch! One of my sisters is allergic to peppers. Whay do you think would be a good substitute?

    HollyMonday 17th January 2022

    Hey Debbie, any recipe with less washing up is good in our eyes! You could try swapping the peppers for courgette, hope that helps!

I have had the dish in the oven for way more than 25 minutes and the rice is not cooked. Should it have been 250g of cooked basmati rice?

Reply

    LisaTuesday 7th December 2021

    Hi Denise.
    The rice used is uncooked. Make sure your stock and coconut milk is simmering before adding the rice. We use fan ovens for our recipes, so if your oven isn’t a fan oven you will need to increase the temperature. We have a conversion guide here.
    https://pinchofnom.com/oven-temperature-conversion-guide/
    Your rice should certainly be cooked after 25 minutes, but if you still have trouble, perhaps your oven runs a little cool. Increasing the temperature by 10-20 degrees should solve this.
    Hope this helps
