Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pot and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Stir in the diced tomatoes, coriander powder, cumin powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes have broken down and formed a sauce.

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot.
