Home made Dahi or Yoghurt

Home made yogurt tastes much much better than the store brought one. It also saves you some money. And once you get it right, its super easy to set it at home.

Ingredients:
Milk - half ltr
Yogurt - 2 tsp

Procedure:
1. Boil the milk and keep aside.
2. Take the Yogurt in a casserole and stir it well. Keep it aside.
3. Once the milk is warm, add the milk to the yogurt in the casserole and stir nicely.
4. Keep this untouched and undisturbed for 10 hours or overnight.

The delicious Yogurt is ready.
When refrigerated , it can be used for 3-4 days

Tips:
1. The yogurt added should not be cold. Keep 2 tsp yogurt outside for some time before milk.
2. The home made yogurt serves as the best yogurt to prepare the next batch of yogurt.
3. If you don't have any home made yogurt, you can add 2 tsp Greek yogurt instead.
4. Make sure that the milk is boiled well before adding it to yogurt. Half boiled milk does not give good results.
5. I had a  problem boiling milk on hot plate. I apply ghee to the bottom and sides of the milk container and then add milk from boiling. This prevents milk from burning at the bottom. If you have a gas stove, you can skip this.
