Heat a pressure cooker with the ghee. Add in the seasonings.
Let them crackle for a minute. Add in the onions and ginger garlic paste.
Saute well till the onions turn limp. Add in the green chillies.
Add in also the chopped tomatoes. Stir fry once nicely.
Add in the red chillie powder, tumeric powder, and garam masala powder.
Cook until the tomatoes turn mushy. Add in the mint, coriander leaves.
