Heat oil in a pan or kadai and add the whole spices (garam masala) for tempering. Give a stir and then add the paste made earlier. Mix it well and fry on medium to occasionally low heat for 8-9 mins till light brown in colour.
Now add the marinated liver and fry on high heat for 2 mins. Now add the Kashmiri Chilli Powder and continue to fry on medium heat for another 3 mins.
