Let’s be honest—we all crave something comforting, flavorful, and quick, especially on those lazy days. And this Sizzling Dahi Tadka is exactly that kind of dish. It takes just 5 minutes and minimal effort, but the end result? A burst of spicy, tangy, and aromatic goodness that pairs perfectly with hot steamed rice.

Here’s how it goes:

Heat some oil in a pan, toss in jeera and curry leaves—the aroma hits instantly. Add chopped onion, garlic, and green chillies, and sauté them just until golden. This is where the real flavor kicks in.

Next, add Chukde’s Turmeric Powder, Coriander Powder, and Kashmiri Mirch Powder—these spices are pure magic. Their bold, earthy notes are what give this tadka its signature punch. Add salt and let everything cook for a couple of minutes.

Turn the flame low and stir in the curd (dahi). It turns the spicy tadka into a creamy, tangy gravy. Give it a good mix, garnish with fresh coriander, and boom—your sizzling dahi tadka is ready!

Serve it hot with steamed rice. It’s soulful, satisfying, and so addictive, you might just ditch your regular curries for this one.
