I'm sending this solution from india, whichever gravy u are
making ,first try grinding onion,ginger and garlic together then grind
cashewnuts mixed with poppyseeds soaked in milk for about fifteen
minutes. After grinding both fry it on slow flame till dark brown add
little tomato puree fry again and now the gravy will be thick if u put
little water and add whtever meat u like to eat. Try this method and
let me know if it worked.Allthe best
