Moru Curry (Spiced Buttermilk)

Yields: 4 Servings Difficulty: Easy Cook Time: 5 Mins

This is a staple dish from Kerala which goes very well with rice dishes. This is a favourite in our home and my daughter loves it. It is the South Indian version of the North Indian ‘Kadhi” , the difference being that this recipe does not have chickpea flour or besan as an ingredient.
