Always use non-sour hung curd for this recipe. I prefer using homemade thick curd as it gives perfect texture. You can also use plain yogurt or sour cream. avoid curd with whey water

I soaked the rice for 20 minutes. adjust the soaking time according to the rice variety you use.

Ghee gives amazing flavor to the kurma rice so I prefer using it. you can use any oil of your choice.

SHOULD I ADD TOMATOES?

 If you are skipping curd, add tomatoes accordingly
