Notes

Tips and other options:
  • For a healthy option, you can also add olive oil.
  • If you have red onions, go for it. The taste will be the same as the white onion.
  • You can use yogurt as the substitute for coconut milk, and for that, skip the tomatoes also as it will add a tangy flavor to the curry.
