I recently saw Reza Mahammad make a lovely looking chicken curry on the This Morning TV programme. He added yogurt before cooking and not surprisingly it split.
Is it OK to have separated yogurt in a curry dish? I always try to add it at the end so this doesn't happen but it's made me wonder now.

I cooked Jamie Oliver's Gurka curry the other day. It contains yogurt and it didn't split.

I learnt long ago to stir a *tiny* bit of cornflour into the yogurt first,then add it to the hot curry. It always seemed to do the trick. You could also mix some of the sauce into the yogurt first,then add in.

Yoghurt thickens curries really well and give them that authentic taste.

I use yoghurt for a lot of my curries, but I tend to add it towards the end and then only a spoonful at a time, stirring it well in before adding the next spoonful. It invariably separates and curdles if added all at once.
