I have given the process of preparing home made butter in my early post. After removing the butter we have a large bowl full of buttermilk left. You can just add salt to it and drink it. It is a great cooler and perfect for a sunny day.
We use this buttermilk instead of curd along with rice. As the butter is removed it is completely fat free and guilt free. You can also use it in bakes, as an egg substitute. Mom also used to prepare a hot drink using this buttermilk. The preparation is very simple but it is delicious. I made a cup of this spicy mor and had it with cucumber slices.
Ingredients:
Butter Milk-1cup
Chopped Coriander Leaves-2tbs
Salt-to taste
Green Chilly-1/2(finely chopped)
Hing-a pinch.
Mix all the ingredients well and serve. In villages even today this butter milk is served for visitors. There is also a drink called oorugai mor. I heard about this from my hubby. When he visited a chettinad home, they offered him this type of butter milk. It is nothing but the regular butter milk mixed with a tsp full of pickle. He said that it was very tasty. I haven’t tried it yet.
