Drain the water from the soaked mixture and add it to the grinder.
Blend everything into a smooth paste, adding water as needed and set aside the paste for later use.
Cooking
Heat ghee in a pot or deep pan.
Add the green cardamom, black cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, tej patta (Indian bay leaf), and mace and fry until they crackle and become fragrant.
Saute sliced onions until they turn golden.
Add ginger-garlic paste and chopped green chillies; saute briefly.
Mix in the nuts-seeds paste and curd, keeping the heat low or turning it off. Add turmeric and red chilli powder; stir well.
Saute for 3 to 4 minutes on low heat, stirring frequently.
Add the mixed veggies, stir, and pour water.
Season with salt and simmer until the veggies are fork-tender.
Once the veggies are done, add cream, stir it into the gravy and turn off the heat.
