Clean the liver thoroughly under cold running water. Pat dry and cut into bite-sized pieces.
Heat vegetable oil in a large pan or skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped onions and sauté for 5-7 minutes until golden and translucent.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Sauté for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
Stir in the chopped tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and mushy.
Add curry powder, turmeric powder, chili powder (if using), coriander powder, and salt. Cook for 1-2 minutes to toast the spices.
Add the liver pieces to the pan. Cook on medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liver is browned on all sides.
Pour in 1 cup of water. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for 10 minutes, allowing the liver to absorb the flavors.
Uncover and stir in the garam masala. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Turn off the heat and squeeze in the lemon juice. Mix well.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and serve hot with steamed rice, naan, or roti.
