    To make the korma, heat ghee in a saucepan and fry till the chopped cashew nuts turn golden brown. Put in the sliced onions, ground masala paste and salt and cook on a low flame, till the onions turn light brown. Stir occasionally till the ghee floats to the top. Add half a cup of water and bring to boiling point. Add the egg cubes and cook gently till the korma thickens. Garnish with freshly cut coriander leaves. Serve hot with rice or parathas and chutney.
