Ginger-Garlic Paste: A homemade paste can add more freshness, but store-bought options work well too.

Garnish: Fresh coriander leaves add a burst of flavor and freshness to the dish when used as a garnish.

Consistency: Adjust the gravy thickness by adding water or simmering longer, depending on your preference.

Tempering: Consider tempering the curry with mustard seeds or curry leaves for an extra layer of flavor.

Cream or Yogurt: For a creamier texture, you can add a bit of cream or yogurt to the curry.
