Answer 1

The base of kadhai gravy is typically made with tomatoes, onions, and a mixture of ground spices such as coriander, cumin, and garam masala. This forms a rich, flavorful base for cooking meat or vegetables in a kadhai (Indian wok).
Precautions while making kadhai gravy:
1. Avoid burning the tomatoes: To get a smooth and tangy flavor, make sure not to overcook or burn the tomatoes when cooking the base.
2. Cook the spices properly: Ensure that the ground spices are cooked thoroughly before adding any liquids, to release their full flavors and prevent a raw taste.
