Check out Pankaj Bhadouria's tips to perfectly mix yoghurt in gravies:
- Wisk the yoghurt properly before adding it to the curries or gravies
- The gas should be turned off or on the low flame when you are adding yoghurt. “The gravy or whatever vegetable you are cooking should not be boiling, instead it should be simmering,” the chef explained.
- As soon as you add the yoghurt to the gravy, stir it till the yoghurt gets incorporated into the mix. Keep on stirring until the gravy starts simmering.
