I made this dish entirely in a pressure cooker.If you want to make in a wok increase cooking duration.
Heat oil in a cooker fry onion,ginger,garlic till fat starts seperating.Add tomato and further fry for some more time.Mix in turmeric powder,coriander powder,red chilly powder,kashmiri red chilly powder and stir fry for few seconds.Add curd and fry for some more time.Add kathal,salt and small amount of water and stir.Close the pressure cooker and cook for atleast 3whistles from the cooker.Open the cooker once pressure releases.Add cumin powder,garam masala powder,fresh cream and give a final stir.Serve hot with chapati,parantha or bread.
