Ingredients
  

  • 6 large onions chopped
  • 8-10 cloves of garlic crushed
  • 1 2-inch fresh ginger roughly chopped
  • 6-7 ripe roma tomatoes
  • 2 tsps cumin seeds
  • 2 tsps garam masala
  • 1 to taste Secolari Thai Ginger Sea Salt
  • 1/2 cup Secolari Habanero Olive Oil

Instructions
 

  • Transfer onions, garlic, and ginger to a food processor or blender. Pulse until roughly pureed.
  • Heat oil in a pan and cumin seeds. When it starts to crackle, add the onion, ginger, and garlic paste to the pan. Cook at a medium heat until the color changes to light brown. Stir 4-5 minutes so that the paste doesn’t burn or stick to the bottom of the pan.
  • While the onion paste is cooking, roughly chop tomatoes in processor or blender, pulse until smooth and pureed.
  • Add the tomatoes, garam masala, and salt to the pan; cook 20-25 minutes until its color changes to pale brown. Taste for seasoning and adjust as needed.
