Critical Success Points
- • Heat mustard oil until it lightly smokes – this develops the characteristic flavor.
- • Allow the tempering to cool slightly before adding the yogurt mixture to avoid curdling.
- • Stir continuously on low heat while the yogurt cooks; never let it reach a rolling boil.
Safety Warnings
- • Mustard oil gets very hot; handle with care to avoid burns.
- • Do not let the yogurt mixture boil, as it can split and become grainy.
