Begin with adding 5-6 tablespoons of refined oil in the cooker

Wait till the oil heats up, then add cinnamon, 2 cardamoms, 4-5 cloves, 1/2 tablespoon of cumin and one leaf of cassia. Sauté for about 15-20 seconds and then add chopped onions.

Wait till the onion turns light brown and then add 1 tablespoon of ginger-garlic paste. Mix thoroughly. Add all the chopped vegetables including tomatoes and 3 tablespoons of curd.

Now, put 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/4th teaspoon of red chilli powder, 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric powder and 1 teaspoon of Biryani powder.
