2. Avoid Using Leftover Rice

Leftover rice can become tough and chewy. If you have extra rice, add a bit of water when reheating to keep it soft.

3. Never Use Hot Rice

Hot rice and curd don't mix well - it can make the curd curdle and separate. Let the rice cool down before mixing in the curd.

4. Don't Add Tadka Too Soon 

Adding tadka too early can spoil the flavour and cause the water (whey) to separate. Give it time before mixing it in.
