I read several recipes for Kashmiri and wasn't happy with most if them as they didn't include bananas. So I made one up.
The instructions, on the other hand, are based on the Korma recipe of the Indian cookbook as it had been a huge success when I tried it.
Hints / Tips : I listed the ingredients on groups to make it easier to read. I put all my ground spices in a cup before adding them to the bowl, I found it more convenient.
If you find chicken is a bit boring, you can try it with lamb or prawns and adjust the cooking time accordingly.
Will most definitely cook this one again !

WOW - what a list of ingredients - you might win the prize for most ingredients in a dish. but then again - you aren't relying on packets/jars of curry paste - it's the real deal.
Great recipe and tips. :-* :-* :-*

I think this sounds delicious! I've never had Kashmiri Chicken so will be trying this, bananas and all!
I like the way you've grouped things. I try to do that when I write out my recipes, much easier to follow.
Keep coming with your great recipes Lemongrass! :)
