Notes

Adjust the water consistency according to your preference. If the curry is very thin after taking from cooker, you can allow it to boil for few minutes to make it thick. If you don't have ginger garlic paste you can crush 5-6 ginger and small piece of garlic and use instead of grinding into paste.
