Indian summers call for cool dishes that are easy on the gut, quick to prepare, and high on flavour. Just like curd rice. A staple of South Indian homes, the dish has today crossed borders to become a crowd favourite. It has many variations and is often cooked with leftover rice as well. The classic recipe only uses rice and curd, along with a classic spice tempering, and is known to aid digestion.
