Kaju Curry is rich, creamy, soft and delicious curry recipe which we regularly have it in marriages and parties. Kaju Curry is North Indian side dish, which we can have it with rotis, parathas, even with jeera rice and also with simple vegetable pulao. There are different variations of preparing Kaju Curry, like using fried cashew nuts, boiled and grinded cashew nuts and also heard of Goan style Kaju Curry but never tasted. Though I regularly order paneer recipes but recently I had this Kaju Curry with kulcha (And also Kadai paneer with butter naans 😉) for Raksha Bandan with my cousins family @Krishna Bhavan restaurant, Adoni. Had a good food & time with niece Bhanvana and nephew Manoj😍. Thought to post this Kaju Curry recipe from long back, at last today I am posting on hubby's demand 🤗.
It is easy to prepare Kaju Curry with easily available ingredients . To prepare this Kaju Curry today I used soaked Kaju and poppy seeds(gasagaslu) paste to get rich creamy taste. Along with tomato puree and fried onions paste. Though the masala's used dominates the sweetness of cahewnuts still we get the richness of cashew with nice aroma.

And had left over Kaju Curry with rotis for dinner😋😋.
Note
◆ Instead of using cut half cashew nuts you can use whole kaju's.
◆ You can also use garlic while frying ginger.
◆ Adding fresh cream is optional. If fresh cream not available you can add malai(megada) on low flames.
◆ Instead of kasuri Methi you can also use dried Methi leaves.
◆ Instead of butter you can also use ghee.
◆ Adjus water as per your requirement.
Tips
● To get rich and cream texture I used soaked cashew nuts and poppy seeds paste along with tomatoes. (You can skip this cashew nd poppy seeds in
paste).
● Fry cashew nuts on low flames, so that they do not burn.
●Kaju Curry texture will be bit thick. Adjust thickness according your wish.
