• ½ tsp turmeric
• 1 tsp oil or ghee
• ½ tsp mustard seeds
• ½ tsp fenugreek seeds
• 8 curry leaves
• 1 dry red chilli

Method

1. Beat the urad paste with a pinch of salt until light and fluffy.
2. Whisk the curd, besan, water, turmeric and salt until smooth.
3. Heat the oil, add mustard, fenugreek, curry leaves and red chilli, then pour in the curd mixture.
4. Bring to a boil, stirring all the time so it does not split.
