Prepare the yogurt (curd) by whisking it until smooth.

In a bowl, mix the curd with besan (gram flour) and water to achieve a thin consistency.

In a pan, heat oil and add mustard seeds, allowing them to splutter.

Add curry leaves, chopped green chilies, and grated ginger to the pan, sautéing briefly.

Pour the yogurt and besan mixture into the pan, stirring continuously to prevent lumps.

Cook the kadhi on medium heat until it thickens slightly, about 15-20 minutes.
