3. Sauté Onions: Add the chopped onions to the pot and sauté until they become translucent and golden brown, about 8-10 minutes.
4. Add Garlic and Ginger: Stir in the minced garlic, grated ginger, and green chilies. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
5. Incorporate Spices: Add the curry powder, ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric, and red chili powder to the pot. Stir well to combine and let the spices cook for about 2 minutes.
