Check out this new variation of curd rice in the form of Curd Idiyappam. I just replaced the rice with the latter. It turned out very yummy and drool worthy. There is nothing like having a bowl of this simple and healthy dish for breakfast, brunch, lunch or for snack when time is a constraint. It is also ideal as a lunch box meal.
It is both filling and soothing to the tummy. You can enjoy it on its own or with some pickle and papad. A little bit of idli podi or any gun powder sprinkled over it does wonders to this wholesome dish. It is simply divine. So check out a step by step pictorial recipe to prepare this comfort food.
- 2-3 Idiyappam , crumbled
- 1/2 cup yoghurt, whisked
- 1 tbsp. oil
