Curried Yogurt
158kcal
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil
- 1 cup Plain Yogurt Your choice of fat-free, low fat or full fat.
- 1/2 cup Water
- 1/2 cup Onions Diced
- 2 Green Chillies Finely chopped
- 1/2 tsp Cumin Seeds
- 1/2 tsp Coriander Powder
- 1/4 tsp Garam Masala
- 1/4 tsp Turmeric Powder
- 1/2 tsp Kashmiri Red Chili Powder
- 1/4 tsp Salt Adjust to taste
Method
Preparation
- Add 1/2 cup water to the yogurt and whisk to mix well.
Cooking
- Heat the oil in a pan, and once hot, add the cumin seeds. When they begin to sizzle, add the green chilies (if using). Lightly frying the chilies helps mellow their heat in the finished dish.
- Add the diced onions and cook until they start to turn translucent.
- Add all the spices except the garam masala and cook for 1 minute.
- To prevent the yogurt from curdling, first temper it by mixing a spoonful of the hot onion base into the yogurt in a separate bowl. Then, turn off the heat, pour the yogurt mixture back into the pan, add the garam masala, and stir well to combine.

Notes
Using Green Chilies: Green chilies are optional — omit them if you prefer a milder dish.
Consistency of the Finished Dish: If you’d like a thinner consistency, such as for serving with rice, you can stir in a little water to the yogurt before adding it to the pan.
