Transfer the potatoes into a separate bowl once they turn light golden brown.
Lower the flame at this stage & add all the whole spices into the ghee, let them fry in the oil for a few seconds & then add the chopped onions, cook the onions over medium high flame until they turn light golden brown.
Then add the ginger garlic & green chilli paste, stir well & cook until the onions turn golden brown, you can also add a splash of hot water if required.
