3 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons minced ginger
2 cups chopped tomatoes
1 tablespoon salt

The curry was a bit too runny for my liking, but it was still very flavorful. I would suggest adding more cornstarch or flour to thicken it up.

This curry was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less chili powder next time.
