Notes

  • Pro Tip: Agar aap ke paas mustard oil (sarson ka tail) bohot pungent hai, toh pehle usey dhuwan uthne tak garam karein, phir thanda karke dubara cooking shuru karein. Is se "Karwahat" khatam ho jayegi.
  • Bachat Tip: Ready-made masala packet ke bajaye ghar ke masalon (Kalonji, Saunf, Methi Dana) ka istemal karein, ye sasta bhi hai aur sehat-mand bhi.
  • Safety Note: Mitti ki handi ko kabhi foran garam aanch par na rakhein aur na hi garam handi mein thanda pani dalain, warna mitti chatakh (crack) sakti hai.
  • Health Note: Ye recipe 2026 ke modern health standards ke mutabiq Low-Acidity hai kyunke clay acidity ko neutralize kar daita hai.
