Add whisked curd gradually. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until ghee separates again. Add water to make a thick gravy. Add tomato sauce, garam masala and salt. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes.

Note: to make rusk crumbs, buy ordinary rusks and not milk rusks. Since milk rusks are sweeter, they do not taste good enough.
