- Now take the onion mixture into a jar ,add in chopped tomatoes,coriander powder and blend into a smooth paste.
- Heat 2 tbsp of oil in a pan and add in the onion tomato paste.Fry it till the oil separates from the paste..
- Add red chilli powder.Add 1-2 tbsp of water if required and add the curd. Cook it covered for 10 min.

Cant wait……………..
Will try this today π
Thank you siri..
Let me know the end result π
Tried it. Turned out awesome…. But I was bit confused with Garam masala whole spices. I didn’t knew what to add exactly. So I added masala powder.
By the way can you add the process to make Garam masala powder. I have searched the internet but i found it specific to the curry. But I need it commonly for all the recipes.
Once again thanks for the recipe… π
Hi siri,Thanks for your comments.
Whole Spices means cloves, cinnamon,cardamom green and black,bay leaf,etc.(Lavangalu,chekka,yalukalu,javitri etc)You canalso use ready made garam masala powder..but the taste that comes from freshly ground whole spices is different and unique..:)
Will surely add the recipe you have asked for soon:)Stay tuned π
