Instructions:

1. Preparation of Cashews:

   - Soak the cashews in warm water for about 30 minutes. Drain and set aside. You can also blend them with a little water to make a smooth paste if you prefer a richer curry.

2. Cooking the Base:

   - In a pan, heat oil or ghee over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onions and sauté until they turn golden brown.

   - Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and green chilies and cook for another minute until the raw smell disappears.

3. Adding Spices:

   - Add the pureed tomatoes, turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Cook this mixture until the oil starts to separate from the masala, stirring occasionally.
