Nice tip- one I’ve used many times myself. I just wanted to say that the tablecloth is wow!- is that a madhubani-inspired print- looks fab. Apart from that, love your site-keep the curries coming!!

Also, if potatoes are not available for some reason, you can also use chapati dough to pull the excess salt from the gravy.

This kind of table cloth is very easily available. If you are in California-LA…than go to LA street…you’ll find it just for $6 for 6 chair table.

Another tip is to use wheat flour dough (small ball without salt added). This small dough-ball will absorb the extra salt as well as extra chilli. Rest the dough-ball into the gravy/curry/soup for 5-10 mins than take it out.
For many liquid based gravy Tomato will also work fine.

Hi Amulya,
Yes, if it is parchment paper…not wax paper. The only important thing is to cut it to the exact size of your pan.

Hi Deena,
Though we’d love to put out more videos every week, a lot of time and effort goes into the production of our shows. Plus, we do have the time constraints of being full time moms as well
