Instructions

1. In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.
2. Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
3. Stir in the curry powder, cumin, coriander, turmeric, and cayenne pepper. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, allowing the spices to bloom and coat the onions.

6. Taste and season with salt as needed.
7. Serve hot over steamed rice or with warm naan bread.
8. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
