Heat oil in a pan until shimmering.
Saute onion with green chillies until softened and fragrant.

Add the prepared masala paste and cook for 1-2 minutes until aromatic.
Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve hot with chapati, rice, or bread.
If you prefer a spicier curry, increase the quantity of green chillies or dry chili in the masala paste.
For a smoother paste, soak the tamarind in warm water before blending.
