Notes

    1. If you like your curry to be more liquidy, add a little more water while cooking.
    2. If you like smoky flavor, then you can roast the tomatoes and then add them.
    3. You can adjust the spice level by increasing or decreasing green chilies and red chilli powder.
    4. The curry thickens as it cools, so if you are reheating, then add a splash of water to bring it back to the right consistency.
