Korma is typically an ultra-creamy, slightly sweet curry, with pronounced accents of almonds and cardamom. Here, the richness of heavy cream is replaced by a thick purée of almond milk, sautéed onions, and almond butter for a similar effect.

Add the almond milk, almond butter, and remaining ¾ tsp salt and blend until smooth.
