  • Step 8/10

    Add 50-100ml water depending on how wet you want the curry to be. In my pictures, I added about 100ml of water since it gives off nice gravy in the end. But do remember, the more water you add the more cooking time it takes.

  • Step 9/10

    Important! Once you add water and mix well, taste the water with a spoon and make sure the spice levels suit your taste. Now close lid and let it cook for 20mins (for 100ml water added). Every 5mins or so, open the lid, drain the water droplets on the lid inner surface away, stir the curry and close the lid back.

  • Step 10/10

    Keep repeating till the gravy reaches the thickness level you prefer. I cooked for 20mins where I had added 100ml of water. Your curry is ready! Serve hot.
