Method

1) Add yoghurt to a muslin cloth.
2) Keep the muslin with curd in a tea strainer for whey to drain off. Keep a dish under the strainer to collect the whey/ water.
3) While curd is draining, keep in fridge or it will turn sour.
4) This process may take a few hours or you may even leave it in the fridge overnight.
