- Make a grainy paste of everything listed under "Ginger Garlic Paste". I like to use mortar and pestle to make this paste, but you can certainly use grinder. Keep it aside once done.

- Add in finely chopped onions. Saute for couple of minutes.
- Add Ginger Garlic Paste, mix well and saute till onions are translucent.
- Add in other spices (kashmiri red chili powder, cumin coriander powder, salt, turmeric powder & garam masala). Mix well. Cook for a min or two.
- Add in chopped tomatoes along with ½ cup of water. Mix well and cover it. Keep cooking on medium heat till half of the moisture is evaporated and tomatoes are soften.
- Add in jaggery, mix well and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
- Add in cilantro, mix well. Mix in sev right before serving. Enjoy it with simple bhakhri!
