Notes
I skipped green chilli and cashews since I didn't have them in stock. But I love those flavors and add them regularly.
You can add some hot water to adjust consistency if it is too dry after opening the cooker. I didn't use any extra water.
You can use combination of oil and ghee or only ghee.
Adding turmeric powder is optional
