- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of chili flakes or a dash of your favorite hot sauce.
Frequently Asked Questions:
- Can I use pre-made korma paste? Yes, absolutely! If you’re short on time, feel free to use a good quality pre-made korma paste. Just adjust the amount to your taste.
- Is this soup suitable for vegetarians? You can easily adapt this recipe for vegetarians by substituting the chicken with chickpeas or lentils.
- Can I make the flatbreads ahead of time? While they’re best served fresh, you can make the dough ahead of time and store it in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Just roll and cook them when you’re ready to serve.
- Can I freeze this soup? Yes, this soup freezes well. Allow it to cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container and freezing for up to 3 months.
- What kind of chicken should I use? We recommend using chicken breasts for this recipe, as they are lean and cook quickly. However, you can also use chicken thighs for a richer flavor.
