My instant pot cauliflower korma recipe is a delicious, creamy and easy vegetarian option. Restaurant quality and fully kid approved!
The recipe can also easily be made vegan by replacing the ghee with vegetable ghee or coconut oil and replacing the cream with coconut milk.

Notes
Nutrition
To make toasted almonds, just put them on a baking tray in the oven at around 150c (300f) for around 1 minute. Remove them when they are gently browned (be careful as they turn fairly quickly).
I served mine with rice, but obviously, you would have to omit this if you want the recipe to be keto.
