Tips and tricks

  • The first thing is the amount of yogurt so the Tah-chin does not loosen. You should consume yogurt in moderation. If you have a lot of yogurt, it will loosen and if it is low, the rice grains will not stick well together.
  • The number of eggs is also important. If your eggs are low, it may lose. Because the egg acts as a glue.
  • It is better to use the best non-stick pot you have but If you have a ceramic pot, it is much better for this.
  • You can garnish with a variety of vegetables and strained yogurt and slices. I fried the eggplant in a thin long sheet and made a flower with it and arrange parsley around it.
