Dahi Ki Kadhi
Dahi Ki Kadhi is a spiced yogurt and gram flour curry that gently cooks to a smooth, tangy sauce. Flavored with garlic, green chilies, turmeric, and chili powder, this curry balances mild heat with creamy sourness. It is cooked carefully to prevent curdling and results in a warming, comforting dish commonly served with rice.

- 1 tbsp garlic paste

- In a bowl add the gram flour to the yoghurt then whisk until there are no visible grains of the gram flour present in the mixture

- Set the yoghurt mixture aside and heat up the oil in another pan on low heat
- Add the garlic paste and halved green chillies ensuring that the oil is not too hot as the garlic paste will burn and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant
- Add the chilli powder, turmeric powder and salt then cook the spices on medium heat for 3-4 minutes – add 1-2 tablespoons of water to ensure that the spices do not burn – the water will help to release the colour of the spices
