Best Cooking Methods
- Rajma or urad (lentils): While making urad dal or rajma, don't add salt while boiling it in water; instead, add salt after the dal is cooked. Add two tbsp of rice flour to the mixture while making lentils. Chillies will make it crispier.
- Tandoori roti: To make the tandoori chapati soft, while kneading the dough, add some curd and knead the dough with lukewarm water. Tandoori chapati will become crispy and soft.
- Idli: Add a spoonful of sugar, two pieces of bread to a mug of coconut water and mix it. Blending it in the idli mix makes the yeast grow well.
- Dumplings: While making dumplings, if a pinch of arrowroot and a little hot oil is mixed, they'll become tastier and crunchier.
- Curd: Looking for sour cream to set curd? Put a green chilli in tepid milk to get the curd ready.
- Hing-jeera: Instead of roasting asafoetida-cumin in the raita, add asafoetida-cumin tadka to it.
- Onions: While frying onions adding a little sugar will get the onions brown immediately.
- Coconut milk: Add coconut milk to the idli dosa mixture to get rid of sourness.
- Rice: Mixing lemon juice with water while cooking rice makes the rice tastier.
