    TIPS & TRICKS FOR MAKING GHEWAR:

    1. The batter has to very smooth and liquidy.
    2. Add ice cold water for making the batter. I usually add some ice cubes into the water to keep it cold.
    3. Keep the batter in fridge till needed. So the batter stays cold.
    4. Use small sauce pan or any small pan for making the ghevar. The size of the ghevar depends on the size of the pan.
    5. I use half ghee and half oil for frying the ghevar.
    6. The ghee and oil should be very hot when pouring the batter in.
    7. Never fill the pan above half with oil or ghee. Because once you pour the batter in the oil rises.
    8. Pour small amount of batter in each time.
    9. Cook the ghevar on low to medium heat so it gets crispy and golden.

      I had never heard of Ghevar before, but I tried the recipe and noticed the curdling you mentioned. I believe it might be due to the emulsion of ghee and water/milk. I kept stirring, and it did improve a bit. Should it be completely crispy? Mine was crispy on the outside but soft on the inside. People said it tasted fine, but the batter might have been a bit thick.
