By Janani July 18, 2012

A very common dish that's eaten in every Indian house.It best for summers.Curd is everyone's favourite and good for health.Drinking buttermilk is good for stomach.Consuming it everyday will control heat in our body.Curd rice is good for lunch box or when you are not in a mood to cook. This simple dish comes in handy all the time.I know its easy to just mix the curd with plain rice and pickles,but this seasoned curd is more tasty and easy to make.
