Menthi Majjiga-Flavored Buttermilk

12/6/2013

0 Comments

 
I made this Menthi Majjiga directly from my home made buttermilk which I got after churning my butter from raw milk. But you can make it with yogurt anytime. 
When you are so tired and you don't have any energy to cook, but you still want homemade food then this is what you make.
Ingredients
3-4 cups of butter milk or diluted yogurt
1 tsp Carom seeds (Ajwain)
2 Green chilis
Some cilantro or coriander leaves
Salt
For Tempering
2 tsp oil
1/4 or 1/2 tsp fenugreek seeds
1/2 tsp mustard seeds
1/2 tsp cumin seeds
a pinch of hing or asafoetida
a few curry leaves
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper
1/4 tsp turmeric powder

Preparation
If you are using buttermilk get it ready. 
If you are using yogurt, dilute the yogurt with some water and whisk it well or blend it in the blender.
Cut the green chili into small pieces.
Cut cilantro or coriander leaves finely.


Procedure
Add salt, cilantro and green chili to the buttermilk.
Take carom seeds into your hand and crush them in your palm and add them to buttermilk. You may also grind them coarsely.
Tempering
Take 2 tsp oil in a small pan.
Heat the oil on medium heat.
When the oil is hot add fenugreek seeds followed by mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Keep stirring.
When the fenugreek seeds are turning light red, add crushed red chili, then hing, turmeric powder and curry leaves.
Turn off the stove.
Add the tempering or seasoning to the buttermilk.
Enjoy with rice.

Helpful Tips
If you do not want to use too much fenugreek seeds, you can reduce them to 1/8 tsp. But fenugreek seeds give a very crunchy effect to Menthi Majjiga.

Health Information
Carom seeds promote good digestion.
Buttermilk or yogurt is soothing on your stomach.
