Saute this for a minute.

Add the sliced onions to the pan.

Saute this for 2-3 minutes in a low flame.

Cover it and cook for 15 minutes.

In a bowl add 1 tbsp of besan and add ¼ cup of water.

Mix well without any lumps.

Open the lid and add the besan mix to the pan.

Mix well, let this boil in a medium flame.

The gravy will start thickening now. Check for salt.

We need a semi-thick gravy consistency.

If you want you can add a dash of lemon juice.

Serve this with Poori, chapati, or idli dosa as well.
