Quick curd/ yoghurt curry

Stirred Curd/ Yoghurt - 1 litre
Water - 1/2 litre
Garlic - 7-8 cloves thinly sliced
Ginger - 2-3 Tbs thinly sliced
Pearl onions- 2-3 Tbs thinly sliced
Red chillies- 4-5 nos
Curry leaves - 2-3 stems
Fenugreek seeds- 1 tbs
Cumin seeds - 1 tbs
Mustard seeds- 1 tsp
Turmeric powder- 1/2 tsp
Chillie powder - 1/2 tsp
Oil - 2 tbs
Salt

Method
Splutter mustard seeds, cumin seeds, fenugreek seeds, add ginger, garlic, pearl onions/ shallots, curry leaves, red chillies and saute on  medium heat till its slightly brown. Add the powders and heat it and switch off the stove before adding the water and stirred yoghurt. Stir it well so that the curd doesn't curdle.

Enjoy with hot rice after a weekend of partying out and eating fast food. It also makes a cool and savoury drink for an upset stomach. The ginger and cumin is especially good; even for small kids with tummy aches and gases.
