Cream, or malai in Hindi and Urdu, gives korma, butter chicken and dal makhani their soft, rounded finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis collection brings together dairy \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/milk\"\u003emilk\u003c\/a\u003e in whole, semi skimmed and skimmed styles, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/plant-milk\"\u003eplant milk\u003c\/a\u003e made from oats, soya, almond and coconut, and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/cream\"\u003ecream\u003c\/a\u003e for cooking and pouring.
