  3. 3

    Stir in ginger garlic paste and green chili; after a minute add the ground spices with a splash of water so they don't scorch.

  5. 5

    Finish with garam masala, cilantro and a knob of butter for gloss.

Chef's tip

If the masala sticks, add water a tablespoon at a time rather than drowning the dish.
