Quick question. For the spices measurement, can I use the teaspoons and tablespoons used in the US cooking measuring system? Thanks!
Hi Shay,
Yeah we can use the US cooking measurement!!Thanks for visiting and sorry for the delayed reply.
Also, if I want to double the recipe, do I also need to double up the spices or just add a couple of pinches more? Thank you. Can you tell I am not used to indian cooking? 🙂
Yes we have to double all the ingredients.If you increase the onions and tomatoes the quantity ll be increased and obviously the spices should be doubled. Thanks for trying Indian cooking:)
