Making the Tadka Cook time – 15 minutes
- Heat Oil in a pan on high flame for about a minute.
- After 1 minute, add black Cardamom and Cumin Seeds and let them cook for 30 seconds.
- After 30 seconds, they would turn golden brown in color. Now, add Garlic and Ginger. Cook them for 30 seconds.
- After 30 seconds, add chopped Onion. Mix well and let it cook.
- When Onion turns golden brown in color would take about 2-3 minutes, add Tomato and Green Chili paste. Mix well.
