Instructions
- Make your spice blend. Add cumin, curry powder, garam masala, and turmeric to a small bowl. Set aside.
- Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until the onions are translucent. Add garlic and ginger and cook for 2 more minutes. Add the spice mix and stir until everything is coated.
