Ingredients

4

1 Liter Whole Milk

2 & half Tbs Fresh curd

Tips

Use good quality whole milk for best results.

Fresh and high-quality curd as a starter ensures better results.

Keep the curd in a warm place for setting; cooler temperatures may slow the process.

Directions

In a saucepan, heat 1 liter of whole milk until it comes to a boil. Once boiled, let it cool down until it is just warm (around 40-45°C).

Clean the clay pot thoroughly and pour the warm milk into it.

Add 0.025 liters (2.5 tablespoons) of fresh curd (starter) to the milk and gently mix it in using a spoon.

Cover the clay pot with a lid or a clean cloth and place it in a warm, undisturbed spot. Let it set for 6-8 hours.

After the set time, check the curd. It should be firm and smooth. If needed, let it sit a little longer.

Once the curd is set, refrigerate it to keep it fresh.

This recipe makes approximately 1 liter of curd, serving about 4 people.

Notes

People with lactose intolerance should consume curd in moderation or avoid it entirely. Consult a healthcare provider for specific dietary advice.
