to weight loss.

You can also add 2 cups of chilled milk, instead of water.
The consistency of this lassi is neither thin nor thick. If you want a thick lassi, then add 1 to 1.5 cups water.
3. What should we do if our curd is not set?
If your kitchen got a bit cool while the yogurt sat, fermentation may have slowed down.
It hasn’t stopped, but you may need to give it more time to thicken. Place the yogurt in a
warm location to speed up the process. Your oven is a good place to let the yogurt sit overnight
