Note

The original ingredient list contained incomplete items (quantities without descriptions). Ensure you have standard masala ingredients like garlic, ginger, onion, and oil on hand to complete the recipe.

For a richer flavor, you can add a tablespoon of ghee along with the oil when frying the spices.

If you prefer less heat, remove the seeds from the green chilies before slicing.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop with a splash of water to restore moisture.
