Menthi Majjiga (Buttermilk With Fenugreek) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cups buttermilk
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
salt, to taste
1 sprig fresh curry leaves
2 green chile peppers, sliced into thin rings
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 dried red chile peppers
1/4 teaspoon fenugreek seeds
1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 pinch asafoetida powder

Preparation

Stir the buttermilk, turmeric, and salt together in a bowl. Add the curry leaves and green chiles, but do not stir into the mixture.
Heat the vegetable oil in a small skillet; add the chile peppers, fenugreek seeds, mustard seeds, cumin seeds, and asafoetida powder to the oil. Fry the mixture until the seeds splutter. Pour the mixture over the curry leaves and green chiles. This will quickly fry them and release a nice aroma. Serve cold or at room temperature.
