  • Always use heavy bottomed vessels to make desserts, in order to avoid burning.
  • Make desserts with full cream milk, to get thick creamy texture.
  • Whenever curd is to be added to the masala, it should be beaten well and add gradually.
  • Chop some extra vegetables, for next day stir fry.
  • Use the leftover dal water to make rasam or sambar.
  • Never discard water in which vegetables are cooked, use it in gravies, soups, rasam or sambhar.
