Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the green cardamom pods, black cardamom pod, bay leaves, and cinnamon stick, frying until fragrant. Introduce the sliced onions, minced garlic, and julienned ginger. Reduce the heat to low and cook until the onions achieve a deep golden brown hue, about 15-20 minutes. Season generously with the red chili powder, turmeric, cumin, and salt. Incorporate the pureed tomatoes and continue cooking until the oil begins to separate from the gravy, approximately 5 minutes.
