Liquid Ingredients Measurements:
Mentioned below are standard measurements of recipes involving liquid ingredients but if you have to measure liquid higher than a cup, you can use the cups and double them accordingly to increase the amount in a large bowl. If you have liquid measurements lesser than a cup then you can use teaspoons and tablespoons and other smaller cups.

Dry Ingredients measurement Chart:
The right way to measure dry ingredients like flours, sugar, rice, semolina or rava is to fill the cup or tablespoon to the brim and level it using the back edge of knife or spatula. You can change the measurement as per requirements like if it requires a heaped or scant accordingly.
Now ingredients like flour, cornstarch or besan vary a little in their measurements as that of the recipe requirement whereas when it comes to ingredients like granulated sugar and rava or rice and dals cannot vary much as they are not too much compressible. Whereas while measuring other foods like chopped vegetables or shredded cheese it will vary in large as it depends on the size.
