Making the Gatte:

Making the Gravy:

1. Heat the Ghee: Heat ghee in a pan. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter.
2. Sauté the Aromatics: Add ginger-garlic paste and sauté until fragrant.

4. Add the Spices: Add red chili powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, and garam masala. Sauté for a few seconds.
5. Whisk in the Curd: Whisk the curd to avoid curdling. Add it to the pan and cook until the raw smell disappears.
