Boil the milk:

Take a pan and then heat milk in it until it comes to a rolling boil and then simmer it for 2-3 minutes.

Cool the milk to lukewarm temperature:

Now turn off the gas and let it cool until it’s warm, touch it with a finger and see if you can touch it, if yes then it's the perfect temperature for milk.

Prepare the starter curd:

In a bowl add 1-2 tablespoons of curd with a small amount of warm milk, so that they blend completely.

Mix curd with the milk:

Now add the prepared curd mixture to the warm milk and stir it gently so that it evenly distributes in the milk.

Set in a warm place:

Now cover the bowl and let it rest in a place where no one touches it for at least 6-8 hours.
