If you make your own yogurt at home (which is easy to do in an Instant Pot), you can skip this section. If you have yogurt on your shopping list when you go to the supermarket, however, here are your options:

 Whole-milk yogurt: Great for making lassi or for adding to curries, whole-milk yogurt has 6 to 8 grams of fat per cup.

 Low-fat yogurt: With 2 to 5 grams of fat per cup, low-fat yogurt is great if you’re looking to reduce the fat in your diet. Use it for cold dishes like dips and raitas, though — high temperatures could make low-fat yogurt split.

 Greek yogurt: Greek yogurt has had the whey strained off, so it’s thicker and better for cooking because it’s less likely to split. I like using Greek yogurt in raitas, too, because it makes them creamy and delicious!

If you’re vegan, you can use coconut yogurt (for cooking with) or soy yogurt (in uncooked preparations like raitas).
