Once the cumin splitters, add 3 large ripe and red tomatoes finely chopped. Stir well.

Add 1 tsp kashmiri red chili powder, 1 tbsp coriander powder, 1 tsp turmeric powder, and salt to taste.

After 10 minutes, add 1 tsp Kasuri methi and simmer for another 5 minutes. Feel free to adjust the spice levels and consistency of the curry.
