ABOUT Thayir Sadam (Curd Rice) RECIPE

The humble curd rice is one of my ever-favourite meals. I like this South Indian delicacy for my summer-time lunches, and with the maddening Kolkata heat, nothing can beat this bowl of chilled curd rice! I am no expert when it comes to this though, and while I am aware that it could be prettier and perhaps made with many variations, I like mine sweet, cold and with crisp curry leaves and a light tadka..
