Notes:
  • For this recipe, i didn't use whole spices like cinnamon, cloves and cardamom in order to avoid bitting them.
  • Make sure to use good amount of curry leaves for the best flavor.
  • It's has mild spice so add more or less of chiilli powder/pepper powder according to your taste.
  • Don't reduce the amount of onions since it's the key for the taste.
