How to Make Pahadi Dahi Tadka: A Step-by-Step Guide

Begin by heating oil in a pan over medium flame. Add cumin seeds and asafoetida, allowing them to sizzle and release their aromatic oils.
Introduce finely chopped green garlic to the pan. Saute gently, letting the garlic infuse the oil with its pungent flavour.
Next, add diced onions to the mix. Stir frequently until they turn translucent, creating a fragrant base for your tadka.
It's time for the spice blend. Sprinkle in turmeric, salt, red chili powder, and coriander powder. Saute this aromatic mixture until the spices are well-combined and you can see small oil droplets forming on the surface.
Now for the star ingredient – slowly pour in the whisked yogurt. Stir continuously to prevent curdling, and let it simmer gently for 5-7 minutes. This allows the flavours to meld and the yogurt to absorb the spices.
Finally, garnish with a generous sprinkle of fresh coriander leaves. Serve hot and enjoy the creamy, spicy goodness!
