spicy buttermilk recipe | majjige huli recipe | masala chaas recipe | buttermilk | neer-ale | majjige | mor recipe with step by step photo recipe. masala chaas is flavored indian buttermilk. majjige / butermilk is perfect beverage in hot weather or after a heavy meal.
south indian meal is incomplete without buttermilk. buttermilk is usually made spicy by adding green chilli, coriander leaves, ginger and lemon. all the ingredients are up to your taste; you can change the quantity as per taste. in udupi – mangalore region we call this spicy buttermilk as neer-ale (neer means water, ale means curd).
the tempering is compulsory to give a rich flavour to your buttermilk. try out this recipe, i am sure you will fall in love with buttermilk. i personally prefer majjige huli to be slightly sour so i squeeze some lemon juice to make it more tasty. adding tempering is optional, however it adds great flavour to your masala chaas.
majjige is my husbands favourite. we preapre buttermilk after having a heavy meal as it is good for digestion. if you are looking for more traditional beverages, then check out beverage collection, especially, kashaya, masala chai, masla milk, mango rasayana, banana rasayana etc.
