Offer tips on how to cook with Matka for best results
Matka can be a great addition to any meal; however, achieving perfect Matka-based dishes (*depending on Matka number*) may require a little practice. Matka is best cooked at a low heat to ensure a perfect texture, and stirring constantly will also help the Matka not to stick or burn. It can be mixed with lentils, beans, and spices for fuller flavor and added nutrition. Additionally, adding veggies such as onion, tomato, carrot, green chili etc., provides the Matka with even more flavor by deepening the richness of the natural Matka taste. Whichever way you decide to cook Matka - remember that patience is key!"
