Usage and storage:
This gravy is used in many dishes and curries. It is used as a base for kormas, where more curd and brown onion paste is added. This gravy is rarely used on its own, as it is very heavy. It is thus combined with makhni or hariyali gravy to create royal dishes such as malai kofta, methi matar malai, navrattan korma, etc. This gravy should be made when required as the nut pastes can make it sour and spoil rapidly
