Basic tomato onion for gravy recipe

Basic tomato-onion paste 

This tomato-onion paste is very common in most of the Northindian curries that we prefer. So I am sharing the method to prepare this paste which you can refer for future purposes. 

Ingredients 

Onion - 1 cup 

Tomato - 1 cup 

Crushed ginger garlic - 2 tsp 

Cashews - 4 no.s

Red chilli powder - 2 tsp 

Cumin seeds powder - 1 tsp 

Dhanya powder - 2tsp 

Turmeric powder - 1 tsp 

Green chillies - 1 (optional) 

Gingali oil - 2 tsp 

Salt - to taste

Method 

In a Kadai, add oil, onions and keep mixing. Cook well till it turns to be translucent. 

Add crushed ginger garlic, chillies and cook till the raw flavor vanishes. 

Now add tomatoes, cashews and cook well till it turns to be mashy. 

Now add all the powders, salt, water and cook well.

Once it comes together, turn off the flame and let it rest.

Now add this into the mixie jar and grind well into a fine paste.

Our all curry basic paste is ready.
