While it is necessary to be mindful of how much you want to add to your bowl, create a balance between texture and flavour for the best experience.

Use up bits and bobs of food – whether it is leftover sabzi or stews, the odd piece of pita bread or spoonfuls of sauces and gravies, avoid the hassle of making something else and repurpose.

Place your accoutrements in a way that you can create your own interesting combination of flavours in bites, while also making sure that one doesn’t overpower the other in any way.
