• Heat 2-3 tbsp oil in a pan and fry the sliced onions until golden brown. Drain onto a kitchen paper and keep aside.

• Now to the same oil(add more if required) add the chopped garlic and sesame seeds and saute for a few seconds.
• Add the turmeric powder, chilli powder and 1 tsp water(to prevent the powders from burning) and fry well for a minute or two.
