In Aloo Mutter Korma, they add a subtle sweetness and depth of flavor that complements the earthiness of the potatoes and the freshness of the peas. 2. Add 1 cup chopped tomatoes. Tomatoes help thicken the gravy slightly, providing a smooth and creamy mouthfeel. They also soften and break down during cooking, adding another layer of texture to the dish. 3. Add ¼ cup of water. The primary reason for adding water is to achieve the desired thickness of the gravy. Some prefer a thin, soupy korma, while others like it thicker and richer. The amount of water directly affects this aspect.
