Whole milkWarm gently before stirring in; use equal weight (1:1). Yields a richer, creamier gravy with a slight sweetness compared to plain hot water.
Coconut milkHeat gently; use equal weight (1:1). Lends thick richness and a pronounced nutty coconut sweetness ideal for South Indian curries.
Vegetable stockBring to a simmer before pouring in; use equal weight (1:1). Boosts savoury depth without adding dairy fat or altering the texture.
