Notes

No Sour Yogurt, no worries - here are a few substitutions that will work:
  • Use store-bought buttermilk.
  • Greek yogurt whisked with water to thin it out.
  • If you want to make the recipe without yogurt, then use equal quantity of water, but also add some lemon juice or vinegar (for 1 cup mix use 1tsp vinegar/ GITS = 2tsp/ MTS mix = 1 tbsp)
