Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Large onions
  • 2 large Tomatoes
  • 4 pieces Garlic cloves
  • 1 inch piece Fresh ginger
  • 2 small Green chilies
  • 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon Red chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 cup Low-fat yogurt
  • 0.5 cup Cilantro leaves
  • 1 cup Water
  • 1 teaspoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Peel and thinly slice the onions. Finely chop the tomatoes. Mince the garlic and ginger. Slit the green chilies lengthwise.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and sauté them until they turn golden brown, about 8-10 minutes.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic, ginger, and slit green chilies to the pan. Sauté for an additional 2 minutes until the raw aroma disappears.

Step 4

Stir in the chopped tomatoes and cook until they soften and the mixture becomes thick, about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Add coriander powder, cumin powder, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. Stir well to combine the spices with the onion-tomato mixture.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low and add the low-fat yogurt. Stir continuously to avoid curdling. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce is well blended.

Step 7

Add water to the pan and increase the heat to medium. Bring the curry to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Step 8

Turn off the heat, and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro leaves.

Step 9

Serve hot with steamed rice or whole grain flatbread for a complete meal.
