Tenderly toast those chilies in a dry skillet until they blush a dark red-brown, about 1-2 minutes. Cool, then tease out the seeds and caress into pieces.
Simmer the sassy spinach and mustard greens in separate saucers until tender, about 10 minutes of gentle boiling. Let cool, then blend into a smooth, velvety puree.
Heat ghee in a saucepan, adding cumin seeds until they pop with excitement. Stir in onions until they're just golden and irresistible, about 3 minutes.
Introduce the roasted chilies, ginger and garlic paste, and caressed tomato into the mix. Merge with the green puree, let simmer.
Season with salt and sugar to taste, whispering the flavors together. If the mix is too thick, seduce with water until you've hit the perfect lushness.
