A. The tradition way is with a Slurry... That is Cornstarch and water or Arrowroot and water... Professional Chefs use Arrowroot, but it is expensive. I use Cornstarch... Make sure you add it in slowly keep stirring and only a little bit at a time... The mixture should be a creamy paste and be able to pour... Good luck ( love the smell of curry

A. Open an savings account with ICICI bank or HDFC bank with DEMAT account and trading . ICICI bank guides you how to trade and operate online trading . Their www.icicidirect.com web site has link which teaches you chapter by chapter how to operate account and guide you for investment. It is very simple. Minimum balance to be maintained in saving account is Rs. 5000/= . There is no restriction on minimum amount to invest or trade. Brokerage charged is 0.75% but there is minimum brokerage they charge appx Rs. 35 per transaction So if you trade with very low amount say below Rs 3500 , brokerage charges will be very high in percentage and your profit may go in brokerage. So it is better to trade or invest above Rs 4000/= per transaction. … [cont.]
