Heat oil in a pan. Add cumin seeds and fry, then add onion and fry till it becomes light golden. Now add ginger-garlic paste and cook for one minute. Add tomato puree and fry until the oil starts separating. Add all dry spices (turmeric, chilli, coriander powder, garam masala) and salt. Add water to the gravy as needed and let it cook on medium flame for 5-7 minutes.
