 Today i am sharing one of popular curry base which we use regularly, that is onion tomato curry base. Both onions and tomatoes are always available at home, we can prepare it easily in any conditions. Use kashmiri red chili powder if available, it gives good color to the  curry. It is very easy to prepare any tough curries like 
** Kabuli chana curry(video), 
** Punjabi dum aloo & paneer gravy curries if this gravy is ready.



 For example if you are preparing Kabuli chana curry, then soak kabuli chana for 8 hrs or overnight, boil it, add this curry base in some oil fry it and boiled kabuli chana in it. Cook it well by adjusting spices or you can also add kaju paste or cream at end while serving that's it. I even love to have this onion tomato curry base as spread on my masala dosa, it just taste yummy, try it once 😋😍. I stored this for 5 days in refrigerator, you can easily store it for a week, make sure that base is cooked well and container you stored is dry.

3) Check onions, make sure that onions are well to golden color.


4) Now add turmeric powder, kashmiri red chilli powder, coriander and jeera powder, garam masala and salt. You can also use normal red chili powder too.


5) Now add tomato puree and mix everything well. I added some in mixer jar, as puree was left in it.



6) Cover the lid and cook it on low flames for 10 to 15 minutes till oil oozes out. Do mix it occasionally, in order to avoid burning on bottom.


That's it our onion tomato gravy curry base is ready, store it in clean container and store it in refrigerator. 


Tips

** Make sure that onions are fried well .

** Do cook onion and tomato mix well, so that we can store it for long time.

** I prefer to add kasuri methi, kaju paste or cream while cooking recipes. As we will get good creamy, fresh and aromatic flavors.

** We can use it as spread on dosa's or as curry for roti's, pulka's,or as spread on masala dosa or as gravy for curries.
