1. Not Cooking Onions Properly

When you rush cooking the onions, it leads to a raw or burnt taste. Always saute them until golden brown for a deep, rich flavour.

2. Adding Spices At Wrong Time

Adding spices in too early or too late can affect their aroma. Always roast them to unlock their full flavour before adding liquids.

3. Incorrect Water Measurement 

Adding too much water can make the curry runny. Too little water can leave it too thick or dry. Balance it for perfect consistency.

4. Not Cooking The Masala

Make sure to cook the masala, onions, tomatoes, and spices, until the oil separates. Skipping this can leave your curry tasting raw.

5. Serving Immediately

Curry flavours develop with time. Letting it rest for a few minutes before serving allows it to blend well and make the dish taste even better.
