  • Now, let’s prepare the gravy. For this, heat oil in a pan and add onions. Add all Garam Masala except kalonji. Fry it until the onions turn golden brown. 
  • Once onions are golden, blend in garlic and ginger paste. Keep flame medium, stir paste, fry for 2-3 mins.
  • Add tomatoes and a splash of water to help tomatoes quickly decompose. Skip water if using tomato paste. Stir, add ground spices, and 1/3 cup water to prevent sticking. Simmer for 1 min on medium flame.
  • Gravy is almost done. Add 4 tbsp yogurt for creaminess. Stir in Spinach and simmer for 2 mins on medium flame uncovered. Stir occasionally for a perfect spice blend.
