If you mix, chilli will add hash and undesirable taste to your curry.Therefore, always stir any stewed dish after heat is off and letting it sit for 1-2 minutes.I’ve got these tips from my elders. They always make sense.I’ve also been doing this wrong all the times.You will see this mistake on my YouTube video on this.
