Also known as “hung curd,” Greek yoghurt typically has a thicker texture and a richer taste than regular yoghurt. It’s also considered healthier than regular yoghurt because it has more protein content. Here's a recipe to transform regular dahi or curd into Greek yoghurt in simple steps.

Ingredients

500 ml dahi (curd) muslin cloth colander

Method Step 1

Arrange a decently-sized container or a colander over a large bowl. Then, place a muslin cloth over the container.

Step 2

Using a spoon, spread the dahi proportionately over the muslin cloth. Subsequently, tie the free edges of the cloth into a tight knot.

Step 3

Set aside the concoction to settle for approximately 5–6 hours. Your homemade Greek yoghurt will be ready once the mixture has lost all excess water.

Step 4

Once ready, refrigerate the Greek yoghurt to ensure that it doesn’t become stale or sour. Enjoy!
