Finely chop the onions and set it aside. Take a frying pan and pour the oil. Bring to heat and then add the onions and sauté briefly. Put in the ginger garlic paste, green chillies and curry leaves. Sauté till the onions turn golden brown and the raw smell of the ginger garlic fades away. Now add the coriander powder, red chilly powder, chicken masala and salt to taste.
