Hello Sonali,
The recipe looks delicious! I do have one question though, I can't have spicy food (very sensitive mouth). Do you mind telling me what spices I need to remove in order to make it mild? Also, the Yogurt that you mention in the recipe, what kind is it? Sorry for all the questions and thank you in advance
