Notes
Create a Smooth Slurry: When preparing the cornstarch slurry, ensure that it is well-mixed and free of lumps. To achieve this, gradually add cold water to the cornstarch while constantly whisking. This prevents the cornstarch from clumping and ensures a smooth consistency. You can use a fork or a small whisk to mix the slurry thoroughly. Aim for a smooth, lump-free texture to avoid any undesirable lumps in your curry.
