1 cup maida = 125g। 1 cup sugar = 200g। 1 cup ghee = 220g। 1 tbsp = 15ml। 1 tsp = 5ml। Indian recipes: katori (~150-200ml), chammach, chutki — not standardized। Kitchen scale (₹300-500): best investment for baking accuracy।
Tips
American recipes: convert cups to grams। Indian recipes: follow traditional measurements OR weigh for consistency।
⚡ CalcWolf Insight
