📌Curd rice or yogurt rice is a dish originating from India. The word "curd" in Indian English refers to unsweetened plain yogurt. It is most popular in the South Indian states and also in West Indian states of Rajasthan, Gujarat and Maharashtra. Only the tempering is different to each other.
📌It is often topped with pomegranate arils, grated carrots, or cucumber for added freshness and crunch.
📌Traditionally served chilled or at room temperature, it is the perfect antidote to spicy food or a hot day.
📌Rich in probiotics, it promotes gut health and aids in smooth digestion. It is highly regarded for its ability to regulate core body temperature, especially during summer.

#Manisha_PureVeg_Treasure #LoveToCook_ServeWithLoveis my introduction as a home chef.At the age of 10, I started my cooking journey with my mother's guidance. My cooking guru is my Maa - Mrs. Madhuri Dhanraj Bhatia. She was a master home chef, running a small business of food items like daily meal tiffin, traveling food packs, seasonal pickles, papad, chips, fryums, etc. So I learned a lot from her. At the age of 18, I got married to a huge joint family and started my new journey. My family loves my dishes and appreciates me. Especially my husband and my son. So, day by day, I improved myself, and today, cooking is my hobby, my passion. My husband, Mr. Kamal Sampat always supports and motivates me. All credits goes to my mother and my husband.I joined Cookpad in September 2018.Till today sharing my recipes. I am happy to join Cookpad, to learn and share more and many more. ❤️👍👌💐
