curry without onion and garlic recipe | all purpose curry base without onion & garlic – with step by step photo and video recipe. sabji or curry recipes are one of the important parts of our daily meal. we generally try to make a unique or fancy curry sabji recipe using different kinds of vegetables or ingredients to have multiple options. yet it carries the same basic gravy base which can be prepared in advance and can be used for almost all types of curries and this post describes a no onion, no garlic curry base.
i had previously posted a hotel-style gravy base recipe made with onion and tomato base. since then i have had a lot of requests for a no onion and no garlic base and i was waiting for the right time. basically, during the navaratri season, we generally prepare recipes without onion and garlic and hence i thought of sharing all purpose curry base for this season. in this curry base, i have used only fresh and ripe tomatoes with seeds like melon, cashews, sesame seeds which not only helps to add flavour and taste but also improves the consistency. with this base, you can prepare almost any type of north indian curry. this will not only help you to focus on the festival but also helps to motivate others in your family to follow its ritual.
furthermore, some more additional tips, suggestions and variants to the all purpose curry base without onion & garlic. firstly, with the tomatoes, i have used the combination of melon seeds, cashews and sesame seeds for taste and flavour. yet, you may either add more dry fruits or just skip to use one of them as per your preference. secondly, you may notice that i have used a generous amount of oil to prepare this base while cooking it. note that oil helps to improve the shelf life of this gravy and hence do not compromise on it. lastly, store the prepared base in the refrigerator for longer shelf life. you may store it in an airtight container and take a scoop of it when you desire to use it.
finally, i request you to check my other related curry recipes collection with this post of curry without onion and garlic recipe. it mainly includes my other related recipes like leftover roti kofta curry, paneer tikka masala, veg nizami handi, dahi paneer, kathal ki sabji, paneer masala dhaba style, matar chole, drumstick curry, soya chaap masala gravy, paneer butter masala. further to these i would also like to include my other related recipe categories like,
