1. 1 kg double greek yogurt


2. 1/4 tsp. turmeric powder


3. 1/4 tsp chilli powder


4. 1/4 tsp. cumin powder


5. 3 button onions


6. 1 inch sliced ginger

10. 2 dry red chillies cut into smaller pieces


11. salt to taste


12. 1 dsp. oil


13. 3/4 glass cold water

Method:

• Mix turmeric, chilli powder, salt and cumin powder with yogurt and keep it aside.


• Heat oil and splutter the mustard seeds and fenugreek seeds.


• Put in the onions, ginger and garlic and slightly brown them.


• Add the curry leaves and pieces of dry red chillies and heat for a minute.


• Now add cold water and then put in the yogurt mix and stir continuously. This should be done on a low fire otherwise it will curdle the yogurt.
